To secure the value of a Right requires a willingness to make some minimal sacrifice.
 

Are you crazy or just political hacks!  That is my only response to your proposal that would allow people registering to vote to skip questions on their citizenship or felony convictions.  Our right to vote our convictions is the most precious gifts we have been given as citizens of Virginia and the Country.  On this basis we have to protect the value of that right to assure it is not diluted through voter fraud.  Please, take a moment to reassess just what you are considering.  If you agree to the importance of this Right how could a few minor inconveniencies compare to the sacrifices our ancestors and present day soldiers and sailors have made to secure it?  Shove this proposal off the deck!
