DO NOT Remove Citizenship and non-Felon requirements from Registration Form
 

DO NOT Remove Citizenship and non-Felon requirements from Registration Form

Virginia has numerous documented cases of Voter Fraud in past elections.  Further, there are organizations that check "YES" in the Citizenship box to actively get unauthorized votes of non-citizens into the ballot box via fraudulent registration.  Therefore, it makes No Sense to remove this only (albeit weak) legal prohibition to allowing more fraudulent voting. Please exercise common sense and hold the line by not removing the requirements to indicate Citizenship and non-felon status!
