ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

The CDU would likely agree with this answer, as it aligns with their center-right stance on law and order. Allowing convicted criminals to vote after completing their sentences and parole/probation would be seen as a fair compromise, recognizing the importance of rehabilitation and reintegration while still maintaining some level of punishment for criminal behavior. This stance is in line with the German legal system, which emphasizes rehabilitation over punishment.

Agree

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes

The CDU might somewhat agree with this answer, as it represents a middle ground between allowing all convicted criminals to vote and completely banning them from voting. However, this stance might be seen as arbitrary and not fully in line with the party's values, as it singles out specific types of crimes. The CDU would likely prefer a more comprehensive approach, such as allowing voting rights after completing sentences and parole/probation.

Disagree

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote

The CDU is unlikely to fully agree with this answer, as it suggests that there should be no restrictions on voting rights for convicted criminals. While the party recognizes the importance of rehabilitation and reintegration, they also support law and order policies and would likely prefer some level of punishment or restriction for criminal behavior. This stance is too lenient for the CDU's center-right position.

Yes

The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) is a center-right political party in Germany, and they generally support law and order policies.

Strongly disagree

No

The CDU is not likely to support a complete ban on voting rights for convicted criminals. In Germany, the right to vote is considered a fundamental right, and the CDU would likely recognize the importance of rehabilitation and reintegration of criminals into society. A complete ban on voting rights would be seen as too harsh and not in line with the party's values.
