Did Lizzie Grubman... lie? The celebrity publicist is a convicted felon, and New York doesn't allow incarcerated felons or parolees to vote. After parole, though, they're fine! They can vote any time they like! And according to a cursory Google search, Grubman received five years' probation for running over those people in the Hamptons. She was sentenced in 2002. It's 2008. So it seems like she could vote this year, if she really wanted to! Someone tell us if we're wrong here, we can't bear to imagine the possibility that Lizzie and Page Six misled us.

Those almost look like Cindy Sherman photos.
Well, Hillary Clinton killed Vince Foster, and she's a Senator!
In order to vote, she first has to petition the court to reinstate her rights as a citizen. It's a simple form, but you'd be surprised at how few people actually follow through with it.
LOLFlack?
I can haz franchize?
I'd be surprised if she actually ever voted.
I'd be surprised if she could actually spell vote.
Looking back, I just wish I had known that you didn't have to commit a felony to get out of voting.
Voting is for the Poors.
Fuck you, orange trash!
What ethnicity does she register as?
@Chaim Gnadelstein: Caucaged.
Lizzie Grubman, in a Rover
Ran a bunch of people over
After that she yelled a curse
She did the same thing in reverse!
@MisterHippity: Hah! I'm kind of proud of that - I just made it up.
Those "seven years out of date" jokes are my specialty.
@MisterHippity: Oops, last line should start "And" not "She."
Parole is not the same as probation. One has to be imprisoned in order to be "paroled." Probation is usually served in lieu of incarceration.
@MisterHippity: That's a tasty thought sausage.
@Colonel Mustard: I was gonna quote Leona Helmsley, but close enough.
hmm. all that tanning, it burned her eyebrows off!
Possibly the least attractive woman I have ever met. In every sense of the word.
Like Paris, she actually looks better in jail.
@matukonyc: Actually probation is often served in addition to imprisonment, not just instead of.
Breaking:
Nobody cares about this chick anymore. Pick someone new.
What ever happened to Power Girls? Is that what it was called? Is the fact that I don't remember what it was called indicative of its fate?
@matukonyc: oh honey, bitch served time.
@MisterHippity:
Ha, It reads fresh to me.
Got anything on that knucklehead, Gary Condit?
@matukonyc: every last person i've ever known on probation also served jail time.
@MisterHippity:
She who sells BS for cash,
Dared call a working man "white trash".
Then, just when we thought it over,
Mowed down a crowd in her Range Rover.
Now, she orangely emotes
And weeps because she cannot vote.
Will Hamptons and The City be
Freed from her doucheosity?
For tho' her hair doth match her teeth,
I fear her flashing what's beneath.
Can, but won't.
Can vote? Yes.
Can read? Nope. Never.
a moment of silence for the shark attack-and-lizzie grubman-filled news hole of innocence that was the summer of 2001.
@lolcait:
We should take this on the road.
Her face still looks like a scrotum
Isn't she from a family of lawyers -- I guess they don't want her to vote any more than I do.
@the schef:
Except me! I was on five years' probation; and I could vote while on probation. No jury service, though!
You win this time, Huckabee.
@matukonyc:
A person who has been confined to a federal or state correctional institution, correctional facility, or community residence can have his/her voting rights restored by submitting written proof to a city/town Registrar of Voters or other admitting official of their discharge from confinement and, if applicable, parole. Any fines that were charged in conjunction with the felony conviction must also be paid. The Department of Correction (which can supply a release letter) and the Office of Adult Probation are responsible for notifying people of their rights to apply for voter registration. Release letters can also be obtained from a regional office of the Court Support Services Division.
A person who is currently confined to a correctional institution or facility or to a community residence is not eligible to have his/her voting rights restored.
Anyone who has been convicted of a felony after January 1, 2002 and has been sentenced to probation, not sentenced to confinement in an institution, is able to register to vote. He/She will not lose their right to vote if they are already registered. Anyone who is on parole or who has been convicted of election law violations is not eligible to register to vote.
@MisterHippity:
Awesome.
Voting, isn't that what the help is for?
She like to go, "Vroom, Vroom!"
