Clemency Application Information

Restoration of Voting Rights Without a Clemency Application

• The Voting Restoration Amendment known as Amendment 4 restores voting rights to felony offenders, except those convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense, “upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation.” Art. VI, § 4(a), Fla. Const. (2020); § 98.0751, Fla. Stat. (2020).
• Completion of all terms of sentence requires the completion of any outstanding legal financial obligations—fines, restitution, costs, and fees—ordered by the sentencing court.
• A clemency application is not required for the Restoration of Voting Rights pursuant to Amendment 4.
• For more information about eligibility to vote pursuant to Amendment 4, please visit the Division of Elections at https://dos.myflorida.com/elections/for-voters/voter-registration/constitutional-amendment-4felon-voting-rights/.
