Military Ballots Tossed In Virginia Due To Ballot Technicality
The chief election official, a Democrat, tossed them because the absentee ballots didn’t list an address for the witness. Information for which there isn’t even a blank on the form.
Fairfax general registrar Rokey Suleman said Thursday that he has had to reject some of the ballots because of a Virginia law passed in 2002. That law—then called Senate Bill 113, sponsored by then state Sen. Bill Bolling—requires that when an overseas citizen wants to request an absentee ballot and cast a vote with the same paperwork, it requires not only a witness signature but also the current address of the witness.
The McCain campaign said there’s not even a space for the witness to list an address. Suleman agreed; he said the federal document was changed in recent years and the space for the witness address was removed. But the Virginia law hasn’t changed.
So the Democrats who have been saying that all the phony voter registrations submitted by Obama’s former employer (who he paid $800,000 to for “get out the vote” efforts this election season) don’t really matter will be intervening on behalf of these soldiers, right?
Every vote counts, right? Even among a constituency that’s 3 - 1 against Obama, right?
