    Hello K:

    The passport won't be a problem. Depending on your state, he might be eligible to vote already without doing anything. The only other right he lost was the right to own a firearm. If he doesn't want to own a gun, then I'd check with your registrar of voters about his right to vote.

    Now, if you want to know something besides that, please be specific. There are situations where a pardon is necessary, and other situations where that's overkill.
