[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am guessing they are "inadvertently" removing citizens too. It happened to me in 2013, the last time we had a Republican governor.[/quote]

“The agency alleges that Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin violated the NVRA when announcing and subsequently carrying out an executive order which required the election commissioner to regularly update the state’s voter lists to remove individuals who have been "identified as noncitizens," and had not responded to a request to verify their citizenship in 14 days.”

Were you identified as a non-citizen, and did you receive a request to verify your citizenship you didn’t respond to?

Because that’s what VA is doing. They are only removing voters who have been identified as non-citizens and haven’t responded to verify their citizenship.

[quote]According to the Justice Department, some of the people identified as noncitizens have U.S. citizenship, leading to some voter registrations being canceled unnecessarily.

"The Commonwealth’s unlawful actions here have likely confused, deterred, and removed U.S. citizens who are fully eligible to vote —the very scenario that Congress tried to prevent when it enacted the Quiet Period Provision," the DOJ said in its suit, referring to the purging of voter rolls within 90 days of Election Day.

During a previous effort to purge voter rolls of noncitizens in Virginia's Prince William County, which took place before July, 43 of the 162 people identified as noncitizens were U.S. citizens, according to the Justice Department's lawsuit.[/quote]

What Youngkin is doing is illegal. GOP does not care about rule of law[/quote]
