People Against Prisons Aotearoa: Voting Ban “Undermines Democratic Principles” Says Justice Group

The right to vote is the basis of democratic government. Legitimate governments cannot arbitrarily remove people from the pool that elects them. If the Government strips New Zealanders of the right to vote, it is attacking the democratic principles it claims to be founded on.
