What is the primary reason people are scared felons will vote?

And its interesting to note the hypocrisy in the laws (imagine that?)... While many states don't allow felons to vote, they DO however allow them to be voted for. So if I had a felony, and Trey Grayson did as well.. He can hold the office that I'm denied to vote for. Then he can have MUCH more power with his votes, than I could ever with mine.

So, back on the question I asked. Is it punishment that provokes peoples to oppose felons voting, or is it fear of how they'll vote? Maine and Vermont allow PRISONERS to vote.
