FLORIDA — Amendment 4, the restoration of felon voting rights after they have served their time, takes effect on Tuesday.

Governor-elect Ron DeSantis recently said the amendment should be delayed, but local supervisors of elections are still moving forward.

Ex-felons can register to vote Tuesday, but it is still not clear exactly when their voting rights will be restored. 

There is some confusion around how the new law should be implemented, because as of now, the state has not given any direction on how to roll out the new law. 

As of right now, in all 67 counties, ex-felons will be able to walk into their supervisor of elections office and register to vote. 

More than 1 million convicted felons will have their voting rights restored because of Amendment 4. 

Former Orange County Commissioner Mildred Fernandez is one person who is expected to register to vote on Tuesday. 

She was served 18 months in jail and was removed from office after a being caught in a sting operation accepting cash from an undercover agent posing as a developer. 

Advocates of the new law say this is a step in the right direction. 

"It's going to be a very emotional moment; it's going to be a very historic moment as we enter into a new era in 2019," said Florida Rights Restoration Coalition Executive Director Desmond Meade.

Amendment 4 was approved by more than 64 percent of the vote in November and it allows felons to have their voting rights restored once they complete all terms of their sentence, including probation or parole. 

But it does not apply to anyone convicted of a violent offense, like murder or any sexual offenses. However, there may be a delay in exactly when voting rights will be restored for felon.

DeSantis, who will be sworn in as governor on Tuesday, has stated that he believes the State Legislature must first pass a law to implement the new changes. 

Meanwhile, supporters argue that Amendment Four's language is clear-cut and no additional legislation is needed. 

However, DeSantis has maintained that he does not believe the new law should be delayed. 

The Orange County Supervisor of Elections Office will begin accepting voter registration applications from convicted felons at 8 a.m. once its open their doors.
