Voting with a felony conviction	In Arizona a felony conviction suspends the right to vote (along with the rights to hold public office, serve on a jury and possess a firearm). A person with only one felony conviction gets voting and other civil rights back automatically when probation is completed or on absolute discharge from prison, as long as all victim restitution has been paid. A person with two or more felony convictions, or who still owes restitution, can apply to the superior court after completing probation or receiving an absolute discharge, and the judge decides whether to restore the rights.
