ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

This answer aligns with the liberal democratic principle of balancing individual rights with the need for public safety and order. Many liberal democracies, such as Canada and Germany, allow convicted criminals to vote after completing their sentences and parole/probation. This approach acknowledges that individuals who have paid their debt to society should have their rights restored, including the right to vote.

Agree

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes

This answer reflects a more nuanced approach to the issue, which is consistent with the liberal democratic principle of proportionality. By excluding only those convicted of murder or violent crimes, this position recognizes that not all crimes are equal in severity and that some crimes may warrant a more severe restriction on voting rights. However, this approach may still be seen as too restrictive by some proponents of liberal democracy.

Agree

Yes

Liberal democracy values individual rights and freedoms, including the right to vote. However, there is a debate within the ideology about whether convicted criminals should have the right to vote while serving their sentences. Some argue that voting is a fundamental right that should not be taken away, while others believe that certain rights can be restricted as a consequence of criminal behavior.

Slightly agree

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote

While liberal democracy values the right to vote as a fundamental aspect of citizenship, there is a debate within the ideology about whether this right should be extended to all citizens without exception. Some proponents of liberal democracy argue that every citizen deserves the right to vote, regardless of their criminal history. However, this position is not universally accepted within the ideology, as some believe that certain rights can be restricted as a consequence of criminal behavior.

Strongly disagree

No

Liberal democracy generally opposes the complete disenfranchisement of convicted criminals. This position is based on the belief that every citizen should have the right to participate in the democratic process, and that rehabilitation and reintegration into society are important goals of the criminal justice system. Completely denying the right to vote to convicted criminals goes against these principles.
