Virginia's Gov. Glenn Youngkin Issues Statement on Noncitizen Voting Lawsuit Filed by the Biden-Harris Department of Justice

[CowboyTed]

The law says NO ILLEGALS CAN VOTE..

The law says no striping vote enrolments 90 days before election ...

This is a simple ruse to get ye all angry without knowing the law.

[NOT defending not having Voter ID. I support that.]

What does the California State law say on the matter? It would be inconsistent to have Voter ID requirements for State and Federal office only in selected precincts, that is ripe for abuse.

The State legislature sets the rules.

WW

I don’t know about CA state law, but what POSSIBLE valid reason would Newsome have for actually BANNING the use of IDs?

 

[1srelluc]

And Federal law, makes no allowance for a state's partisan desire to get people off their voter rolls, within 90 days of election. What was the state doing the 3 years and 9 months?

Piss on the feds, Virginia first.

Now if you want the feds all up in your state's election affairs that's on you.

 

[WorldWatcher]

State's rights issue.....

No it's not a states issue.

State legislatures set the rules for elections, however, Article I, Section 4 of the United States Constitution clearly gives power to set rules for Federal elections when they choose. Which they did in 52 U.S.C. § 20507(c)(2) (See below.)

The fed courts have not enjoined so too bad, so sad.

So you only need to comply with laws if a court tells you you have to comply with laws?

#1 Because it is inconsistent with state law.

#2 Because it results with unequal protection under the law when different precincts have different rules for State and Federal elections.

[DISCLAIMER: I support Voter ID, this isn't Voter ID question, it's and equal application of the law question.]

So all that is necessary is not to require ID. But to actually PROHIBIT it?

Youngkin says no.....Period.

What? Is FJB gonna ask for volunteers to invade Virginia?

Go ahead with your bad selves, we planted plenty of invaders in Virginia soil before, we can do it again if need be.

Appears Gov. Youngkin is about to get the Fed's all up in Virginia elections because he's breaking federal law which, under the United States Constitution, has supremacy.

Thanks Glen, you assumed office on January 15, 2022 so polls should have been purged earlier. You waited to 90-days before the election to announce your executive order, that's on you.

Local precincts don't set voter eligibility rules that is done at the State and Federal levels for State and Federal Elections.

If they want to require it just for local mayor, city council, and school board elections, they can make a case. Trying to define their own eligibility requirements for State/Federal elections, no.

WW

 

[WorldWatcher]

Youngkin says no.....Period.

Not quite, that is what the Federal filing is for, to take it to Federal court.

What? Is FJB gonna ask for volunteers to invade Virginia?

I have not clue who "FJB" is. But there would not be a need to "invade Virginia" (hyperbole much), the courts may provide injuctive relive and the county clerks will comply with the court order.

Go ahead with your bad selves, we planted plenty of invaders in Virginia soil before, we can do it again if need be.

Saw the same nonsense from J6's until they started facing criminal charges.

But hey, go ahead. Commit crimes, become a felon, not be able to vote.

"Mommy, why is Daddy in jail?", because Johnny if "FAFO'd"

Half of your states Representatives and Senators voted in favor of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, and it became the law of the land.
Are you saying the law should be changed by the House and Senate, or that Federal Laws, should not be enforced, or that you get to choose which ones to be enforced, based on present advantage or disadvantage?

The law needs to be changed and enforced.

 

[WorldWatcher]

The law needs to be changed and enforced.

I agree.

Provide a national database accessible to election officials, then consider all citizens "registered to vote" (barring removal due to felony conviction), then require local election officials to use it and enforce it vigorously.

Do away with the current local "voter registration" model.

WW

 

[White 6]

The law needs to be changed and enforced.

Quite possibly. Until it is, it should still be recognized and enforced as the law of the land.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

How about requiring an ID for voting?

Because Tampon Tim gave Drivers Licenses to illegals in his state. Californication is doing the same. I think at the voting places, ICE agents should be posted outside each area, that would keep the illegals away for sure.

 

[citygator]

Virginia had 4 years to remedy any issues and cannot pull random people off 90 days before the vote. Most people the state thinks are not citizens actually are and cannot be taken off. It is already illegal and a FEDERAL offense to vote in elections if you are not a US citizen.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

The law says no striping vote enrolments 90 days before election ...

This is a simple ruse to get ye all angry without knowing the law.

I think the No Illegal Aliens shall vote, trumps the no striping vote. Sorry dude, you can cherry pick all you want, but it doesnt work in the real world.

 

[Whodatsaywhodat.]

I looked the other couple dated threads on the subject over and never saw Youngkin's response, so here it is.

RICHMOND, VA— Governor Glenn Youngkin, after being notified that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice was filing a lawsuit against the Commonwealth of Virginia, released the following statement:

“With less than 30 days until the election, the Biden-Harris Department of Justice is filing an unprecedented lawsuit against me and the Commonwealth of Virginia for appropriately enforcing a 2006 law signed by Democrat Tim Kaine that requires Virginia to remove noncitizens from the voter rolls – a process that starts with someone declaring themselves a non-citizen and then registering to vote.

Virginians – and Americans – will see this for exactly what it is: a desperate attempt to attack the legitimacy of the elections in the Commonwealth, the very crucible of American Democracy.

With the support of our Attorney General, we will defend these commonsense steps that we are legally required to take with every resource available to us.

Virginia’s election will be secure and fair, and I will not stand idly by as this politically motivated action tries to interfere in our elections, period.”

Youngkin called it for exactly what it is.

Election interference by dem lawfare.

Spot on!

Are you an American or are you a Democrat? Simple as that.
