Kamala Harris supports having a conversation about terrorists voting

She issued the surprising declaration when asked by moderator Don Lemon to respond to fellow presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders' proposal to let everybody vote, including even the Boston Marathon bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, whose actions in 2013 killed three people and injured 280 others.

"Senator Bernie Sanders said earlier he’s in favor of felons being able to vote while serving in prison. He was asked specifically about people like the Boston Marathon bomber and also people convicted of sexual assault. He said, 'the right to vote is inherent to our democracy, even for terrible people.' Do you agree?" Lemon asked.

"I agree the right to vote is one of the key components of citizenship, and it is something people should not be stripped of needlessly,"  Harris replied.

"But, people who are convicted, like the Boston Bomber. They should be able to vote?" Lemon pressed.

"I think we should have that conversation," replied.
