Cherokee Village, AR asked in Constitutional Law for Arkansas

Q: I was arrested for poss with intent to distribute marijuana 6 years ago

I went to court and pleaded guilty, but the judge rejected the guilty plea and placed me on probation, which I have long since completed. My question is can I register to vote and apply for a hunting license? Do I still have my constitutional rights?
