It depends on the state. Some require you to go through a process to regain rights, others don't allow it, some allow it unless convicted of certain crimes... You get the idea. I don't think it prevents you from running as a federal congressman or senator, possibly unless you're incarcerated and unable to attend meetings, but I think it does prevent you from being president of the US.

I don't think laws apply to elections anymore. I think it was yesterday when an illegal mexican was elected to state office in Cali.

Maybe those rules only apply to white men?

I would think so, but I haven't looked into it.
