Section 17-3-30.1 Disqualification of electors for felonies involving moral turpitude. (a)
This section shall be known and may be cited as the Felony Voter Disqualification Act. (b)(1)
The Legislature finds and declares that: a. Article VIII of the Constitution of Alabama of
1901, now appearing as Section 177 of Article VIII of the Official Recompilation of the Constitution
of Alabama of 1901, as amended, provides that Alabama citizens shall lose the right to vote
when convicted of a crime only if the conviction was for a felony involving moral turpitude.
b. Under general law, there is no comprehensive list of felonies that involve moral turpitude
which disqualify a person from exercising his or her right to vote. Neither individuals with
felony convictions nor election officials have a comprehensive, authoritative source for determining
if a felony conviction involves moral turpitude and is therefore a disqualifying felony. (2)
The purposes of this section are: a. To give full effect...
