 === Are felons allowed to vote? If so, when is this right restored? ===
-Yes; after prison and parole. Note: On Sep. 28, 2016, California Gov. Jerry Brown signed AB 2466, a bill that allows convicted felons who are serving time in county jails (rather than state prison) the ability to vote from within jail.\\
+On November 3, 2020, CA passed Prop 17, which allows felons to vote in California elections while they are on Parole or Probation. Please note, California also allows convicted felons who are serving time in county jails (rather than state prison) the ability to vote while serving their sentence.\\
