We are led to believe that convicted felons are stripped of their rights as Americans. Once convicted felons in the State of North Carolina have completed a felony sentence or have been pardoned, they are immediately eligible to register and vote.
The convicted felon can ask his or her releasing officer for a “Certificate of Restoration of Forfeited Rights of Citizenship”. This certificate is not required to register to vote, but it will prove eligibility to vote if challenged.
