Ashten · Answer 2

C. criminal conviction.

Explanation:

The practice of denying felons to vote is not only common in the USA, but in many other parts of the world. Many argue that it is a discriminatory practice that targets unprivileged groups of people, on the one hand, and on the other, that is an unjust practice since, felons are either "paying the price" of their crimes or have already done so, which in no way should separate them from exercising their role in democratic life.
