    And here they are again trying to change the rules of the election without the legislature DURING the election while votes are being cast. And doing so to LESSEN the integrity of the election opening it up wider to any voter fraud. Why? Because their candidate who was supposed to be winning by high double digits may very well lose Their flimsy excuse being what? COVID!!! That requiring a witness signature puts someone in danger of getting COVID.

    "According to local outlet InsideNova, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors voted in a 9-1 decision to submit a letter to Northam, claiming that acquiring a witness signature puts individuals at risk of catching the Wuhan virus.


    “No one should have their ballot rejected because they’re unwilling to risk their health and safety to vote,” said the letter’s original sponsor, Chair Jeffrey McKay. “We want to be a county that promotes voter participation and doesn’t punish people.”

    Even though the idea of surface transmission was rejected months ago even by the CDC.

    "But Goldman, a microbiologist at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School in Newark, decided to take a closer look at the evidence around fomites. What he found was that there was little to support the idea that SARS-CoV-2 passes from one person to another through contaminated surfaces. He wrote a pointed commentary for The Lancet Infectious Diseases in July, arguing that surfaces presented relatively little risk of transmitting the virus2. His conviction has only strengthened since then, and Goldman has long since abandoned the gloves.

    Many others reached similar conclusions. In fact, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) clarified its guidance about surface transmission in May, stating that this route is “not thought to be the main way the virus spreads”. It now states that transmission through surfaces is “not thought to be a common way that COVID-19 spreads”.

    Multiple polls show Youngkin tied in the race and this is a blue state. Democrats are in trouble if they can't win here.

    F**king FAIRFAX COUNTY! Oh what a shock indeed...afraid of losing their status as the Commonwealth's "king makers" perhaps? Frankly if Youngkin pulls it off I'LL be needing resuscitation! :nod:

    The democrats have been election rigging for so long they treat it as if it is some kind of a special right reserved for them!

    Democrats can't win Statewide elections anymore, therefore they must commit election fraud and install themselves into power instead.

    They haven't been able to win on a Statewide basis in Virginia for a very long time now, even to this day, thus their need to commit election fraud, in the few leftist bastions within the State that they CAN win in, and install themselves into power.

    And now they the Dems want to end identification on mail in ballots

    "A lawsuit filed last Wednesday in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia against the county registrar and three members of the Fairfax County Electoral Board exposed election officials’ ongoing disregard for state election law. In the plaintiffs’ concise 10-page complaint, the Virginia Institute for Public Policy (VIPP), a public-policy organization dedicated to election integrity, alleged the “Defendants are accepting and approving applications for absentee and mail-in ballots that do not include information required by Virginia law, namely, the last four digits of the applicant’s Social Security number.”

    Mail-In Ballots Without Voter Authentication
    Attaching to the complaint a sworn affidavit, the VIPP noted that “as of October 14, 2021, Defendants have accepted and approved approximately and at least 339 absentee and mail-in ballot applications that do not include the required portion of the Social Security numbers.” The complaint further alleged that the county officials continue to approve applications for mail-in and absentee ballots that lack the legally required final four Social Security digits.

    The affiant, Christine Brim, identified as a voter of Fairfax County, also stated under oath that Stephen Hunt, the chairman of the Fairfax County Electoral Board, had confirmed in an email that the county’s general registrar “had instituted a procedure to approve absentee ballot applications on which the applicant has not provided the last four digits of his or her Social Security number.”

    There is only ONE reason for this disregard of state laws, to allow fraudulent votes to be submitted.

    The excuse of Covid has been an election goldmine for getting extra votes.

    Of course "making it easier" for people to vote seems to intrinsically also mean making it easier for people to commit fraud with almost no way to verify whether fraud was committed.

    And Youngkin has the lead even in the average polling rankings. Frank Luntz just noting that the candidate going into the final days with the momentum, the polls shifting in their favor, are 80% wins and Youngkin definitely has the momentum.

    The Dems are getting desperate. Obama, Biden, Mrs. Bidden, Harris all went to the rescue and look at the results. What schemes will they come up with this time? We already see them trying to change the rules in the middle of the vote and get rid on the most effective safe guard with absentee ballots.

    This kind of says it all for me about Virginia. Thank goodness they did not get rid of witness signatures. Now to do away with most early voting (no one needs 45 days to vote: Dems need 45 days to use a machine to steal elections).
