Virginia recently became a deep blue state, thanks in part to people like Michael Bloomberg who bought elections. As a result, revolutionaries are now in place in the legislature with the extremist, Blackface Northam, as Governor. They are passing law after law that will take away peoples’ rights, one of those rights could soon be the vote.
Originally, radical Virginia Democrats said they were planning to allow felons to vote if they weren’t on probation. Since these socialist Democrats are never satisfied, they have moved on from that. Now they plan to have prisoners vote from jail.
Neat! They can vote for politicians who will let them commit crimes and acquire a get out of jail free card.
Virginia Democrats Mamie Locke and Kaye Kory will introduce an amendment on January 8th that will allow prisoners to vote from jail in the state, The Daily Caller News Foundation reported.
Prisoners will — so far — vote in their jurisdiction, making them an important Democrat voting bloc. It will potentially flood rural areas with prisoners’ votes — Democrat votes.
It’s only one of many revolutionary bills.
Only two other states — Maine and Vermont — allow inmates to vote, but they don’t vote in their jurisdiction.
Along these lines, NPR published a pity article about the poor, sympathetic prisoners who don’t have a say in their government. They call it ‘prison gerrymandering.’
Perhaps they shouldn’t’ commit the crimes.
If they vote in all the anti-2nd Ammendment laws, they are just asking for the lawlessness the left will reap.
In the rural areas of VA the folks aren’t gonna give up their guns, willingly. The DC criminal element is salivating at the unarmed, defenseless folks in nearby VA communities being easy pickings. No guns to worry about from the idiots in the suburbs of DC.
Just sayin’.
“allow felons to vote if they weren’t on probation” – Incarcerated felons are not on probation. Insofar as the interests of criminals do not benefit the nation, surrendering the right to vote upon conviction and thereafter is a rational adjunct to their sentence.
We need a Federal court decision prohibiting partial restoration of rights. If a person is trusted with the right to vote restored, they should have all of their rights restored, including gun rights.
This is surreal.
The Dimms have methodically doing redistricting in areas around the country…while conservatives sleep…
Nothing new with the Corrupt Democrats, who want Control and Power, so they cheat in elections.
This is Why they Never wanted ‘Voter Id’s, because you couldn’t have the DEAD voting, and since they have lied to the blacks for Decades, and now they are waking up, the Corrupt Dems need to replace those lost black voters, so that’s why they wanted “The Illegal Alien Voters, so here in Ca. the Dems. are issuing driver’s licenses, and bingo……….a driver’s license holder is allowed to vote.
I’d suggest that Trump put ALL ICE VANS and Personnell, outside these voting areas and check out these ‘latest drivers’ licenses, and IF recent, STOP that Illegal Alien from voting. They are NOT citizens and thus, shouldn’t be able to vote.
Heard that Tom Fitton of “Judicial Watch” has sued w/FOIA, and got thousands off the voter’s books. Wish he’d do that Same thing all over the country-as the Cheating Must BE STOPPED in our elections. It’s WHY the paper ballots are the best ones, so it can be verified.
Only if the ballots haven’t misplaced in the back of some precinct worker’s car or went to File #13.
This looks like illegal gerrymandering. Every prisoner should have to vote by absentee ballot from their resident county at the time they were convicted. A federal appeal would be most likely.
V. Lenin opened the jails and let the prisoners loose on an unarmed Russia.
The Blue wave in Va,is from the DC employer/union connection. The dems are concentrated in one or 2 areas. By injecting the criminal vote, they can chip away at the conservative bastions and make it look less of a power grab by the major metro areas. Seems your state is even more of a experiment to the leftists than commiefornia.
Only way to correct all the problems and runaway Government Career Elite Class Power is to outlaw Public Unions, and return to the idea of being employed to help serve the best interests of their employers, i.e., fellow neighbors and citizens.
Just consider the results of giving ‘public service employees’ – from lifetime jobs, from which they cannot be fired from, to salaries and pensions guaranteed by their fellow employers good grace and hard-earned money.
Leftists = sick
Dems are putting a noose around VA.
They hate freedom and liberty!
Agreed. One hollywierdo blatantly stated very recently: “f*** your freedom!” These are truly haters of American freedom.
This is easily solved. Kick the prisons outta your county! Most are privately run corporation prisons anyway. Businesses. Just zone them out. “No prisons within (blank) miles of schools, hospitals, playgrounds, etc.” If the liberals love prisons and prisoners so much, then they can have them all! 🙂
Democrats are desperate to win control over the nation anyone with a beating heart will be able to vote, lawful and unlawful.
These lowlifes don’t care if the voter has a beating heart. They see no reason why Grandma, who died ten years ago, shouldn’t cast her ballot for the Democrat party.
Not necessarily with a beating heart.
Then…once the Dems have power say goodbye to America, the Constitution and hello…to the NWO/globalists OWG…where 500 million people only reside on the planet, with non elected elitist bankers run the world…I bet they offered Hawaii, Palm Springs, to Obama and Hillary/Bill get to reside in the White House forever, with 24/7 past news reels of their time in government.
Parallel to obama’s flooding the entire country with muslims.
Ditto!!
Why can’t the government set the rules for federal elections, so they are the same in all the states?
Read and re-read the Constitution. Each level controls its own elections; that’s the principle. The states may even have elections at separate times than the national government.
