Voting Rights Restored For 500 Clark County Residents

A group attempting to restore voting rights for people convicted of felonies have added more than 500 residents in Clark County to an eligibility list in time for this year’s election. 

The Nevada Independent reports the efforts are part of an arrangement between state and local officials and the Campaign Legal Center.
