Washington Appendix 10 Loss of Voting Rights is a policy which states that an individual who has been convicted of a felony is prohibited from voting until their civil rights are restored by the state. The policy applies to all felony convictions, including those which result in a suspended sentence, probation, or deferred prosecution. There are two types of Washington Appendix 10 Loss of Voting Rights: permanent and temporary. Permanent Washington Appendix 10 Loss of Voting Rights applies to individuals who have been convicted of a felony and have been sentenced to a term of incarceration of one year or more. In this case, the individual’s right to vote is permanently revoked and must be restored by the state before they can exercise their right to vote again. Temporary Washington Appendix 10 Loss of Voting Rights applies to individuals who have been convicted of a felony but have not been sentenced to a term of incarceration of one year or more. In this case, the individual’s right to vote is temporarily revoked and must be restored by the state before they can exercise their right to vote again. However, the individual’s right to vote is automatically restored after the expiration of their incarceration or probation.
