Virginia defies Democratic Party lawsuit and purges 40,000 voters before election

[Nyvin]

Like it's even surprising..this is the only way Republicans can win elections anymore.

 

[Warrior102]

Anyone in Virginia who pulls the lever for that cronie, crook, two-faced fucking lying vagina McCauliffe in November, needs to have their fucking brain examined for massive stupidity.
This includes the entire region of Virginia up/near the Capitol Beltway. Out here in the sticks - we're not voting for that fucking communist.

And here's the kicker..

You can't make this stuff up!

I realize illegal voters are the life blood of the Democratic Party, responsible for most of their victories. But you do understand that there is a law, and the law requires purging illegal voters from the rolls, right? And Cucinelli as AG is obligated to do this.
You wouldn't give a shit of course, if Cucinelli weren't running for Governor.

I understand you folks don't like Democracy and are doing your very best to subvert it.

In Florida, with during the Al Gore/George W. Bush race, they used a "law" to purge "felons" from the rolls.

Later on, it was found that the "felons" weren't felons at all.

Back in 2000, 12,000 eligible voters – a number twenty-two times larger than George W. Bush’s 537 vote triumph over Al Gore – were wrongly identified as convicted felons and purged from the voting rolls in Florida, according to the Brennan Center for Justice. African Americans, who favored Gore over Bush by 86 points, accounted for 11 percent of the state’s electorate but 41 percent of those purged. Jeb Bush attempted a repeat performance in 2004 to help his brother win reelection but was forced to back off in the face of a public outcry. Yet with another close election looming, Florida Republicans have returned to their voter-scrubbing ways.

From Rolling fucking Stone? Why don't you just link to the CPUSA's magazine "Workers World"? Which is where you get most of your opinions anyway

And then, to top it off.... Rolling Stoned cites Stink Progress?

Idiot

You're right.

If we don't act to stop the rampant cheating by dimocrap scum, we'll never win another major election.

THAT is just a fact.

In fact, it was dimocrap cheating that got us the PPACA. Without dimocrap scum in Minnesota casting over 1,000 ILLEGAL Votes from convicted and incarcerated FELONS, AL Franken would not have been the 60th vote in the Senate.

It really is THAT important.

Cry all you want, bitches.

Voter fraud strikes at the very heart of everything this Country stands for.

No wonder dimocrap scum like you don't mind it

Standard progressive accusations. "When we win, we win, but when we lose, we actually won. BUSHCHIMPYPALINIDIOTCRUUUUUZZZZBLARGLRBLAGRBLAGR.


/progressive idiot.

 

[Papageorgio]

Amazing.

Next we'll have a guy who runs, say, a voting machine company vowing to do whatever he can to elect George Bush. Or running his campaign while serving as secretary of state in the same state.

Oh wait...

Can you just imagine what the right wing would say if President Obama did anything remotely close to that?

You mean like having the IRS target your political enemies?

Heaven forbid

That is perfectly okay with Democrats, those TeaParty types are dangerous to America.

Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) was serving as a the Board of Elections’ legal adviser and was also on the ballot as the Republican Party’s nominee for governor.

Clear conflict of interest going on here. He should have been immediately removed as "legal adviser" for the Registrar if he's on the freaking ballot.

Absolutely, after all, who in their right mind wants an Attorney General that actually enforces the law. Example, Eric Holder only enforces the laws that he wants to.

 

[Sallow]

So have any of those 40,000 removed voters been shown to have been removed in error yet?

They probably don't even know they were removed.

Correct, because they are either dead or have moved from the commonwealth. Dipshit.

I guess that means your ACORN bitches can't vote in their stead. Too bad scumbag.

Well no.

That's probably because no notices were sent out.

Like what's happened in past elections.

So you think it's okay that an AG be involved in purging votes in the election is going to be running in?

No wonder you guys are on the outs.

He's on the ballot. All relationship with the Board of Elections should have immediately been severed.

And here's the kicker..

Virginia Democratic Party spokesperson Brian Coy told the Post that red flags were raised by the fact that Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) was serving as a the Board of Elections’ legal adviser and was also on the ballot as the Republican Party’s nominee for governor

Of course. Does this behavior surprise anyone these days?

 

[JakeStarkey]

Voting rolls need be up to date.

The R was way behind in the polls with the D pulling away from him.

That will not change.

 

[bodecea]

is this plan b for when gerrymandering fails?

Sure looks like it.

Um..he's purging Democratic voters.

Yeah..it might just change the election.

 

[ClosedCaption]

Well considering the purge rolls are public, this is your BIG CHANCE to show that people are being removed in error, or deliberately. I'm sure some Media Matters dipshit squad is busy going over the purged rolls, and if there are any issues, they will be found.

I'm really loving these images. They describe you guys perfectly

There's something you stupid fucking dimocraps REFUSE to understand......

Voting is NOT a Right. It is a privilege.

It is a privilege granted by the individual States.

Even in the Amendments to the Constitution that address voting, they do not affirmatively grant the Right to vote. They only forbid discrimination and set an age for people where the State grants them the Right to vote.

There.Is.No.Right.To.Vote.

God DAMN but you people are fucking stupid.

In a privilege, it is up to the Individual to make sure he or she is following ALL the rules and to make sure they are in compliance.

In a Right, it is up to the State to make sure they are correct.

dimocraps are just fucking stupid. Honest to God fucking stupid.

BUSH v. GORE

B

The individual citizen has no federal constitutional right to vote for electors for the President of the United States unless and until the state legislature chooses a statewide election as the means to implement its power to appoint members of the Electoral College. U.S. Const., Art. II, §1. This is the source for the statement in McPherson v. Blacker, 146 U.S. 1, 35 (1892), that the State legislature’s power to select the manner for appointing electors is plenary; it may, if it so chooses, select the electors itself, which indeed was the manner used by State legislatures in several States for many years after the Framing of our Constitution. Id., at 28—33. History has now favored the voter, and in each of the several States the citizens themselves vote for Presidential electors. When the state legislature vests the right to vote for President in its people, the right to vote as the legislature has prescribed is fundamental; and one source of its fundamental nature lies in the equal weight accorded to each vote and the equal dignity owed to each voter. The State, of course, after granting the franchise in the special context of Article II, can take back the power to appoint electors. See id., at 35 (“[T]here is no doubt of the right of the legislature to resume the power at any time, for it can neither be taken away nor abdicated”) (quoting S. Rep. No. 395, 43d Cong., 1st Sess.).

You have no idea who he is purging, but I agree that he should not be the one doing it.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Edgetho has no idea of how a constitutional republic works, no idea at all.

And, yup, the 14th Amendment does apply to voting.

I tried to explain burden of proof here once before and I was told that I was saying that because I knew they were right.
