MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Elected the 47th president of the United States, President-Elect Donald Trump will be the first to bring a criminal conviction to the White House.  Many Memphians in the process of re-entry are now questioning their rights and how this could impact them. They've contacted WREG with questions. We took those questions to DeAndre Brown, director of the Shelby County Office of Re-Entry. "I believe America has a unique opportunity now with the election of Donald Trump, to have a real conversation of what America wants to look like, how we want to treat all of our citizens," Brown said. Why is Trump allowed to vote in Florida after felony conviction? Trump also cast his ballot in Florida on Election Day despite his felony convictions in New York.  In Trump’s case, Florida law allowed him to vote because his conviction would not have prevented him from casting a ballot in New York.  Brown says he was all too familiar with Tennessee's laws before being pardoned by Governor Bill Lee last December.   "It's very frustrating when you think about, you have no ability to voice your opinion, on how your children are treated in school, how your tax dollars are spent," Brown said. "You seem as though you're a human and you pay taxes, but you're not able to be represented when the system works against you." Trump has big plans for ‘day one’ on immigration, energy and more As history unfolds at the White House Brown says change could be on the way. "I truly believe we have an opportunity now to use as an example to say that, even if a person may have a criminal history, it doesn't make them a bad person," he said.
