[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why doesn’t the Supreme Court require VA to follow federal law? [b]I bet the vast majority of those disenfranchised are citizens. [/b]There just isn’t a problem with noncitizens trying to vote in the US. Unfortunately maga has decided to make this a theme (no caravan this year) and the Supreme Court is happy to fall in line.[/quote]

Well, you'd be wrong.  Are you able to read actual news reports, or do you always react in the usual outraged, kneejerk way?  The people being purged SELF-IDENTIFIED as non-citizens.  JFC.[/quote]

Love it when people on DCUM are condescending and wrong.

It’s very easy to be swept up in this even if you never self-identified as a no citizen.

If you read the actual court filings by DOJ instead of lazy news reports you would know that Virginia is using partial ID matches— so anyone with similar names is being targeted for purging even if there are different birth dates and other information in the system indicating that the person is a citizen.

A PW county elections office investigated and found that every single one of the people on the list they were given who tried to vote was a citizen.  [/quote]

Yet, not a single eligible person was disenfranchised.

Not one.  Not even ONE.

Eligible voters can register SAME DAY in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and cast a provisional ballot.

Please explain how anyone has been disenfranchised (hint: they haven’t).[/quote]

This is a stupid argument. Should we make everyone in Virginia vote by provisional ballots so Youngkin can have a headline that he is ensuring ballot security?[/quote]

What is stupid is you’re dodging the question, and thinking no one would notice.

I’m not dodging the question.  You are right that of someone fills out the voter registration form they can also vote a provisional ballot but why should they be required to do that when the rate of false positives is so high (verging on 100%) and Congress explicitly told the state to stop doing this 90 days before an election?  It’s all so Youngkin can grandstand and he can eff himself. [/quote]

Nearly all of the 1,600 self-identified noncitizens turned out to be: noncitizens.

The minuscule number of U.S. citizens among the 1,600 received full notification by mail: SENT TO THEIR LEGAL ADDRESSES OF RECORD.  NPR lied when they claimed notices were “sent to the wrong address.”  Everyone is legally required to change their drivers license if they move.  There were no “wrong addresses,” only legally-invalid addresses.

But you still won’t answer the question:

- how has anyone been disenfranchised here?  They can register and cast provisional ballots on Election Day.  Problem solved! [/quote]
