The Voter Fraud Fraud 0

Speaking of scams and frauds, Dan Casey of the Roanoke Times consults with local election officials on the latest Virginia Republican gut-out-the-vote effort.

The results are as I predicted–legitimate voters are getting kicked off the rolls. Here’s one nugget–follow the link for the whole sorry story.

The registrars are now sending cancellation letters to the canceled voters’ most recent Virginia address. Roanoke Registrar Lavern Shepherd said her list is 923 names long. “We have 36 pages of names,” she told me.

One voter she mailed a cancellation letter to responded with surprise. It turned out he had moved out of Virginia, registered and voted elsewhere, but recently moved back to Roanoke at the same address.

Shepherd couldn’t undo the cancellation. So she guided him through the process of reregistering.

Registrars, who are already overworked preparing for November’s election, worry that many voters won’t learn that they have been “purged” until it’s too late to reregister, which, no doubt, is part of the plan.
