Democrats steal Virginia
Major news organizations aren't really reporting it. It was just revealed to the nation moments ago by Fox's Tucker Carlson. Virginia Governor, Ralph Northam signed a bushel of new laws that repeal Virginia’s voter ID law, make Election Day a state holiday in Virginia, and expand access to early voting. Democrats are obviously using the pandemic crisis as a way to change election law. As Tucker Carlson said the democrats in Virginia got every bit of what they wanted.
The Governor who was not long ago mired in a scandal, has just opened the door to widespread election fraud in the state of Virginia. It's no wonder his fellow democrats gave him cover. He was able to bring Nancy Pelosi's scheme to Virginia.

In explaining what will happen now, Carlson used the example of what ballot harvesting did to Orange County in CA. There are others.
Here are a few examples:
"In the 2018 House race in North Carolina’s 9th Congressional District, Republican Mark Harris initially appeared to have defeated Democrat Dan McCready by about 900 votes.
However, the North Carolina State Board of Elections didn’t certify the result because of evidence of a “coordinated, unlawful and substantially resourced absentee-ballot scheme.”
The state eventually called a new election. Republican Dan Bishop won the do-over election in September.
The Heritage report also notes that ballot harvesting was a concern in Orange County, California , after a registrar of voters said individuals were “dropping off maybe 100 or 200 ballots” at a time.
Orange County traditionally has been a GOP stronghold in heavily Democrat California, so the flips there contributed to what became a blue wave in 2018.
“It is a dangerous and foolish public policy that threatens the integrity of elections,” the report says of ballot harvesting. “It should not be implemented by state legislatures—and should be prohibited in the states that currently allow it.”

In Virginia the democrats went all in. They brought home the whole pig!
Northam signed these bills:
House Bill 1 and Senate Bill 111 , sponsored by House Majority Leader Charniele Herring and Senator Janet Howell, respectively, allow early voting 45 days prior to an election without a stated excuse. Virginia currently requires voters who wish to vote absentee to provide the state with a reason, from an approved list, why they are unable to vote on Election Day.
House Bill 19 and Senate Bill 65 , sponsored by Delegate Joe Lindsey and Senator Mamie Locke, respectively, remove the requirement that voters show a photo ID prior to casting a ballot. Voter ID laws disenfranchise individuals who may not have access to photo identification and disproportionately impact low-income individuals, racial and ethnic minorities, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities.
House Bill 108 and Senate Bill 601 , sponsored by Delegate Joe Lindsey and Senator Louise Lucas, respectively, make Election Day a state holiday, which will help ensure every Virginian has the time and opportunity to cast their ballot. In order to maintain the same number of state holidays, this measure repeals the current Lee-Jackson Day holiday, established over 100 years ago to honor Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson.
House Bill 235 and Senate Bill 219 , sponsored by Delegate Joshua Cole and Senator David Marsden, respectively, implement automatic voter registration for individuals accessing service at a Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) office or the DMV website.
House Bill 238 and House Bill 239 , sponsored by Delegate Mark Sickles, and Senate Bill 455 , sponsored by Senator Bryce Reeves, expand absentee voting timelines to ensure access to the polls.
House Bill 1678, sponsored by Delegate Joe Lindsey, extends in-person polling hours from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

These measures are clearly undemocratic and obviously invite voter fraud.
Former first lady, Michelle Obama is also pushing for it:
"Former first lady Michelle Obama will back legislation to expand voting-by-mail as the coronavirus pandemic continues to wreak havoc on how states hold primary elections across the country, according to a report on Monday."

What this means is that democrats will have political operatives going out with hundreds of ballots and returning them without anyone knowing for sure the circumstances under which those ballots were filled out or by whom. This delivers Virginia the same fate as California and we can put it in the Biden column right now.
When your'e stuck with Joe Biden as your candidate, voter fraud may be the only way to win.

The 2020 electoral map starts with CA, NY, MA and Virginia all painted blue.
And Michigan and Pennsylvania and Florida and Arizona and Colorado and Nevada. Trump is toast...

Our Governor is guaranteeing that Michigan will be turning red this November. You can thank her failed Democrat leadership for that.
I know it's largely symbolic, but are they trying to recall her?
Talk is all. I am curious to see how many people show up at the demonstration in Lansing tomorrow. There is a lot of people with time on their hands.
I seriously see no way Michigan will go to Biden. The TDS crowd just doesn't understand that people are aware of all the left wing bias out there.
In some states protesting is an unessential gathering! Can you believe that? When blue state governors sponsored sanctuary cities/states they negated federal law and opened the door to all of this unconstitutional business.
The TDS crowd just doesn't understand that people are aware of all the left wing bias out there.
Yup, it's all out there for all to see.
Biden leads Trump in Michigan so you are really conconcerned.
And I showed you the only poll that matters.
The gop cannot win even with voter suppression!
An opinion from the Washington Post?
I think I'll go with facts. Republicans hold the Presidency, the US Senate and 26 Governor's mansions. I'd say they won elections!
Yup and the TDS sufferers are still waiting for Hillaryious Hillary to win in a landslide.
know what else is ? Trump denouncing mail in ballots, then when confronted, admits that's how HE voted...
Didn’t you hear?
She did win but Trump stole the election with help from the Russians, Mickey Mouse and Felix the Cat
Damn that magic bag of tricks. Its just not fair!
“Because I have to be in the White House, I won’t be able to go to Florida to vote,” but there is a difference between “somebody out of state and does a ballot and everything sealed, certified and everything else.”
Trump went on to defend his position further, saying “dishonesty” existed in mail-in voting.
“I think if you vote, you should go, and even the concept of early voting is not the greatest … You look at what they do where they grab thousands of mail-in ballots and they dump it. I’ll tell you what. I don’t have to tell you. You can look at the statistics. There is a lot of dishonesty going on with mail-in voting, mail-in ballots.”
I read your link
O as in ZERO proof of voter fraud provided in it, just more of Trumps words, which probably 20% could be calculated as LIES, cause he does, over and over like a dog named Rover
ranging from what he just said to all of the knowledge in his fat head.
Ultimate power my ass, another fckn LIE !
what ever happened to those 2 MILLION illegal votes for Hillary ?????
More damn LIES !
Can you prove anything you say?
Why did it take a lawsuit for Los Angeles to finally remove more than 1.5 million potentially invalid names from their voter rolls.
is the question i pose to you and Trump, the LIAR in CHIEF !
Do you really NEED me to prove TRUMP is a LIAR ?
Turn on the damn TV !
What happened to those 2 MILLION illegal voters TRUMP claimed voted, and why HILLARY won the majority ?
How come Trump is potUS if this rampant illegal voting plague is out there ?
I've read it is less than like .oo2% or other, and evident on BOTH sides !
Who was the Republican who had to relinquish his win after even his son, suspected there had been voter fraud to elect him again ?
Face it, without restrictive voting laws in many red states along with ridiculous gerrymandering, they would be BLUE, like you, cause it is a Republican HOAX, as you and Trump can certainly not understand what a true one is.
You really haven't been able to defend your claims. You simply want to smear the President.
Face it, without restrictive voting laws in many red states along with ridiculous gerrymandering, they would be BLUE, like you, cause it is a Republican HOAX, as you and Trump can certainly not understand what a true one is.
You need to face it - That radical agenda the democrats are so fond of can never get them fairly elected, thus the need for voter fraud.
SOSDD Vic, SOSDD.
How can that now be "meta" when you have allowed it elsewhere?
If you allow, your friends to do it, you must allow me.
I'd complain, but nobody is going to stop you.
I asked lib50 yesterday what about Wisconsin. Really interested to what you are referring. Thanks.
And for you as well!
Yup, mail in ballots should only be reserved for those who can't get to the polls.
Thank god for our Republic. I'm thankful everyday that Hillaryious Hillary was to stupid to campaign in the swing states that actually mattered.
You tell me. Why should we accommodate those who don't want to bother going to a nearby polling station to vote?
We is the American people as opposed to the ruling elite.
Along with the military and those who are physically disabled. I don't think you qualify.
I understand your fear though, republicans lose when all are allowed to vote
They lose when there is voter fraud and I don't want it to happen.
I doubt you'll get it.
Lol trying to compare the absentee ballot process with what Dems want is asinine. Not even close to the same thing.
It looks like thousands of people showed up - some in their cars and some on foot - waving American flags, practicing social distancing. All peaceful.
And she still isn't allowed to sit at the Resolute Desk.
I don't understand the resistance to voter ID laws, but the rest of it - Election Day is a holiday, early voting - sound like good ideas.
You don't? They know they can't win the next election, so fraud is their answer.
Its funny to watch the Republicans , who have been screwing with people's right to vote in this country for years, start crying when the other side fights back.
Enjoy your own medicine.
It's always been the democrats. The first year the dems took control of the state legislature they passed these Orwellian acts. When will people learn?
Enjoy your own medicine.
In other words you want voter fraud.
Only a wackadoodle would call a voter ID requirement, voter suppression.
Only in America.
Wackadoodle assumes they are in error. No, they know what they're doing. They want power and fraud is the way.
The idea that you need photo id to verify the identity of a voter is laughable. All you need is signature verification. You sign your name when you register to vote, it is kept on file at your precinct, and when you vote, you sign in and the signature is matched to your registration signature. It works every bit as well as a photo.
Photo id is intended to jerk people around and disqualify as many people as possible.
then you should be able to buy a gun that way
Don't even need to match signatures for that.
It's telling that republicans are bent out of shape when more Americans can exercise their right to vote. That's RIGHT to vote. Voter suppression has been the gop goal for decades and now they whine that people are fighting back. Most of the fraud in elections isn't voter fraud its election fraud and the gop are all in.
Quityerbitchen
Does a hand writing expert match the signatures?
The day is coming when we will use a scanning machine to positively identify individuals. The democrats will fight that all the way.
Again, neither of you mention ballot harvesting. Interesting.
Give us an example of what you consider voter suppression.
I will keep bitching about it, Gun ownership is a right just like voting
In watching what some of these blue states are doing, I can understand why some people keep a gun on the nightstand.
But if you want to smoke a cigarette or have a beer after voting you have to show ID for the purchase but not to vote, that is sad
Then show the same respect for voting rights. And women's rights to control their own damn body. As long as we are talking about rights.
I am a strong supporter of abortion rights and gun rights. I have found the time to vote in almost every election in over 40 years, with out it being a holiday, missing a few locals where there was no competition
Bazinga!!
And some republican governors seem to want to apply draconian laws.
I actually agree with almost all of these laws. What in the world would it hurt having early voting. Nothing. Though I will say 45 days seems like a little much. Maybe 30.
What does it hurt having people sign up to vote at the DMV. Nothing. One can do that in my state.
Nothing wrong with longer absentee voting as people may be over seas and want to participate.
I have always said election day should be a day off for everyone. Maybe more would vote.
The only thing I might agree with ya'll on would be a form of ID. Hell one has to carry ID at most times anyway. I am glad I have an license with the star in the corner.
And if you don't vote in person, there is no ID. As far as mail in ballots are concerned, they must be filled out completely or they are invalid. If the person reading hem gets something wrong, they are invalid. If something changes within the 45 days since you voted, you can't change your vote.
Registering at the DMV should require proof of identity. Does your state do that?
I notice you didn't mention ballot harvesting?
Considering most people have a license it is usually proof enough.
I actually forgot to renew my license and I think there is only a month or so window. I had to have birth certificate, SS#, and a proof of residence, like a bill with name and address.
Funny thing was I gathered all those things and when I went there they didn't even ask for them. I guess the picture was enough. They also have a kiosk in there for renewal, yet most people do it online.
I know people absentee voting don't show ID yet they had to be registered for it. Even if someone else used it, which is illegal, it would be that one vote.
Contrary to popular belief, there is not really rampant voter fraud, and the voter fraud I have read about has been about equal from both sides.
Do we get to see every state's voter rolls?
If Virginia does not want voter ID, Gov Northern needs to also do away with ID to buy things, like alcohol, cigarettes or guns. Can't have it both ways
Yeah, because SOOOO many kids are trying to illegally vote. Lol What the fuck dude, barely half of Americans vote as is, you are acting like voting is some highly coveted right that Americans hold dear. You can barely get 60% to come out in a "Big" election year.
Damn you are funny.
Because it only takes one ballot harvester to change hundreds of votes!
if you do not require ID for voting why is it needed for other things?
It's the first year of the dems control of the legislature and as you can see they will have it both ways.
make Election Day a state holiday in Virginia, and expand access to early voting.
Okay, what's wrong with any of that ?
It's theft. Case in point - the last Orange County election. The election in which those late mail in ballots defeated every Republican representing the GOP bastion of Orange county. California has become a democratic feifdom today because of such fraud.
WTF are you talking about? Hard to discern real news from fake when you believe the Trump propaganda. Just a bunch of Trumpers whining about losing.
Are you disputing the premise of the article?
I'm declaring here and now that Virginia has been stolen and will go to Biden. Iv'e gone out on a limb, don't you think?
If I'm wrong you can call me on it.
The article talks about North Carolina. Maybe you don't know what happened there. The gop went balls to the wall to stop democrat votes.
As for Virginia and other gop losses:
Its telling that conservatives accuse dems of fraud (the usual projection) as soon as their candidates start losing because their voter suppression is addressed. Because THEY can't win unless they cheat, so accuse others of doing what they do. Very Trumpian.
I thought some form of ballot harvesting was legal in a lot of states. Such as, here in AZ it is legal for family members or caregivers to return ballots to the voting centers. With that said I do not like what CA did when they allowed activists to harvest ballots.
If you have one, you don't need the other.
"The very expression “ballot harvesting” reeks of the kind of fetid corruption only Democrats have mastered. It’s rotten trickery and a threat to our Republic."....James Woods
Unfortunately Virginia is reaping what they have sown.
Lessons to be learned here.
and those seeds were sowed when VA Republicans ran Ken Cuccinelli and Bishop E W Jackson
For governor ?
Cuccinelli ran for Gov and Jackson for Lt Gov in 2013, both lost and hurt the Va Republican party
Ah, okay.
“No matter who you are or where you live in Virginia, your voice deserves to be heard....Governor Northam
Gov Northern did not want to hear our voices went we had large meetings about Second Amendment rights
Virginia has the unfortunate honor of housing the all blue swamp, Washington D.C.
D.C. makes the lovely Quantico swamps we trained in smell like fresh cut roses.
Those northern precincts have become a suburb of DC. Many government employees call it home. It has become bright blue.
Southern Virginia has remained traditional. The place that the disgraced FBI official, Peter Strzok notoriously mentioned, when he said he could smell the Trump supporters.
Here in AZ I have been voting by mail for years. I do like it. I don't see any issues with that, and TBH I can agree that this option should be allowed in all states. But it's a states issue that must be settled by each state because the states are responsible for all voting, even federal balloting.
In AZ we do show photo ID but that is to confirm that we are at the correct voting location and are correctly listed in the voter registration system. A workaround in AZ is to bring two pieces of mail addressed to yourself such as a power bill or a city water bill to prove you are in the city. I have never seen any studies that show how many people just do not have a photo ID. I've heard stories but never any studies. But if states would expand the mail voting the photo id issue would go away.
IMO making Election Day a state holiday is a dumb idea. Not all businesses will follow all holidays. I know my company doesn't follow all federal holidays much less state ones. I have long been of the opinion that a Tuesday election day should be gotten rid of as the reasoning behind it is long since gone. Rather I would like voting to be held on a Friday & Saturday. That would allow for many more people to be able to get to the polls without missing work and having to fight a boss who won't be reasoned with. Yes it costs the states more money to have it over two days but I think that's a small price to improve the system.
I don't like ballot harvesting because I think the opportunity for abuse is too great. It's one thing if it is limited to only family or people living in the same home, but absolutely no way do I agree with allowing activists to be allowed to show up with hundreds of ballots. What CA did was wrong IMO and should not be allowed.
Bottom line, every voters bona fides needs to be verified.
How that is done is really irrelevant as long as it gets done by any accurate method. Anything less encourages voter fraud. No question about it.
Absentee ballots require ID verification. Can’t get one in my state without it.
In AZ you can register to vote while on the MVD site. After completing your interaction on MVD the system will automatically ask if you want to register to vote. As you have already identified thru the MVD system I guess that qualifies as verification. You cannot just call up and request an absentee ballot, that is true.
Anyone can get an absentee ballot in Michigan but ID verification is required.
The bedrock of any viable election system. Verifying voter bona fides.
