comment to adding new voter protected status
 

I completely disagree with this addition of protected status for foster parents. Voters who are US citizens and reside in Virginia are already eligible to vote in Virginia and National elections. All others are illegal aliens and are NOT eligible to vote in either the Virginia or National elections... I urge our Virginia elected officials to vote against any such addition of a new protected status for foster parents as I see it as undermining the legal voters of our State of Virginia and Nation.

Addition of a new protected foster parent status on voter form
 

I completely disagree with any new protrected status additions to the voter form. Eligible US and Virginia citizens are already allowed to vote and a new foster parent addition is not necessary. I urge this proposal to be eliminated and dropped, as well as any other such proposals which add protected status to voter forms.

Support voter registration form change per SB1244
 

This change to the Voter registration form is very reasonable to allow security and privacy for foster parents. The foster parent's residence address will not be available on the lists of registered voters and persons who voted, which are furnished on voter registration records made available for public inspection, or on lists of absentee voter applicants. Various political groups and others can have access to voter registration records for campaign purposes. The voter who requests this privacy must still provide his/her residence address on the voter registration form for the Election Office's files. I support this change to the voter registration form.

Update to Section 4
 

While updating this section on the Voter Registration Application for the additional protected voter status, can it be changed to clarify what this section is for and which voters should complete it?  It causes a lot of confusion for voters when completing the application.

Remove shadows in information boxes
 

I would like to suggest that the "shadow letters" in the information boxes for Full SSN (NNN-NN-NNNN), Date of Birth (MM-DD-YYYY), Phone Number and Todays Date be removed.  Sometimes they can make hard to read or very small handwriting harder to read.

Support for wording on SB1244
 

Because the safety of either the child or the foster parents is at stake I support the Amendment to add

this protective wording  to the Registration form..

Practical suggestion for on-line use.
 

Since the form is intended for a user to complete on line, it should not have (Circle if applicable) after Jr. Sr. II III IV.

Circling something on a computer is difficult.

Other than that, it looks good.
