Strongly agree

No, we should build more prisons

Agree

Yes, but place them under house arrest using an electronic bracelet

The SVP might be more open to this option, as it still enforces some level of punishment and control over non-violent prisoners while addressing overcrowding. However, there is no specific historical example to support this.

Slightly agree

Yes, but they must perform community service on a daily basis

Neutral

No, but we should increase funding to offer education and skill building services for prisoners
