Requests for absentee ballots in Virginia's Democratic primary contests are about twice as high as they are for the Republican primaries.

In the 2016 presidential primaries, requests for Democratic and Republican absentee ballots were about equal.

Something smells a little fishy here.

June 13, 2017 is the Primary. http://www.elections.virginia.gov/voter-outreach/upcoming-elections.html

How many more requested than residents? I might would be a tad suspicious if the entire population of Guatemala City requested absentee ballots.

This sounds right for the Democrat party. Ballot stuffing and ghost voting is part of their MO. Even dead people can vote.

I'm sure that's how we ended up with the current expletive that occupies the governor's office. I voted bright and early and am hoping for a miracle.

The Clintonistas corrupt everything they touch, everywhere they go. McAuliffe is a longtime capo in their crime ring, and continues to produce results and to be rewarded. The honest, high-minded, and well-intentioned Virginians that this nation owes so much of its early history to (Declaration of Independence, Constitution) have been snookered and outnumbered.

I moved from VA about 20 years ago. Yesterday I got a letter from Virginia (mailed to my MD address) stating I was still a registered voter in VA and if I wished to keep my registration, to do nothing. If I wished to cancel my Virginia voter registration, fill out a form and mail it back to them. Note that I do not, and have not for the past 20 years, owned any property or had a mailing address in VA. What a sorry excuse for a system.

So for the past 20 years I could have voted in VA and MD!

I'll fill out the form and get myself off their books.

Dem absentee ballots outnumbered Rep ballots in MD 2:1 when Hogan won election in 2014

But you would have to show your VA driver's license

That's what's so great about absentee ballots, no license is needed. All they have to do is mark in their favorite DemocRAT and mail it in.

In MD you don't have to show ID. I purposely tried to give the poll worker my ID and he waved it off.

I'd like to say I'm shocked... but I'm not.

Same here, in MD they jut ask for your name and address. I tried to give him my license, he wouldn't take it.

I plopped it down in front of him and made him take my name and address from it, and although he looked at it he wouldn't touch it, just looked at it like just having it on the table was creeping him out.

He still made me recite my address, "To make sure this is you", hahaha

 

[Jim12]

Anybody who knows your name and address (and dob iirc) could show up at the polls before you do and vote in your place.

I have no plans of voting in a race I am not a part of but what, if any, repercussions are there for voting in someone else's place like mentioned above.
