Suffrage; restore to Peter Fulton of Oktibbeha County.
This bill restores the right to vote to Peter Fulton of Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, who had previously lost his voting rights due to criminal convictions for perjury and burglary. The legislation states that Fulton has since served his sentence and conducted himself as a law-abiding citizen, meeting the state's requirements for restoring voting rights to individuals with past felony convictions. Once enacted, Fulton would immediately regain his eligibility to vote in Mississippi elections. The measure is a specific restoration of civil rights for one individual rather than a change to the state's general voting laws.
