They can't get their voting rights back, because they never lost them in the first place. The voters were unaffiliated, i.e., not registered to a political party like the Democrats or Republicans. They missed the deadline, or their paperwork was lost. Don't ascribe to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.

The deadline was last October. And a lot of people had their party affiliation changed inexplicably.

The deadline was last October.

And so they missed the deadline.

And a lot of people had their party affiliation changed inexplicably.

Their party affiliation was not changed, due to 1) missing the deadline; 2) registration not received; 3) voters themselves reverting back to unaffiliated after a previous election cycle.
