There is a movement on in this country to allow the insane to vote.

36 states bar voting by the mentally incompetent. Activists want to extend suffrage to the legally or criminally insane, or just demented. The American Bar Association agrees.

A federal court in Maine has ruled in favor of the mentally ill. There are lawsuits pending in Rhode Island and Missouri. New Jersey may hold a referendum to allow "idiots or insane persons" to vote. (However, idiots or insane persons would not be allowed to vote on the referendum itself.)

You don't have to be crazy to vote in America, but it doesn't hurt.
