A federal judge recently ruled that Virginia has been violating a federal law for 150 years by broadly disenfranchising people with felony convictions. This decision highlights the struggles faced by individuals like Son Huynh, who plans to vote in the upcoming November election.
Huynh, originally from California, was educated in the importance of voting. His parents emigrated from Vietnam, instilling in him the value of participating in elections. He spent part of his childhood in Vietnam before relocating to Virginia around the age of 13. Voting became a significant source of pride for him.
After committing a felony, Huynh had to navigate the challenges of reestablishing his life post-incarceration. He expressed his determination to vote, having always valued his ability to participate in elections.
