Gov. McAuliffe Vetoes Bill to Share Data About Voters Registered in Multiple States
2017-03-22
[Free Beacon] Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D.) vetoed a bill that would require the state Department of Elections to turn over information to local registrars about individuals who are registered to vote in multiple states simultaneously.

McAuliffe has vetoed a handful of bills in recent weeks intended to prevent voter fraud.

The bill, HB 2343, was introduced by Republican delegate Robert B. Bell and would have required the Department of Elections "to provide to the general registrars a list of registered voters who have been found through list comparisons and data-matching exchanges with other states to be registered in another state."

The bill passed the Virginia House on a 68-30 vote and the Senate on a 23-15 vote. McAuliffe's veto statement called said the bill would make "unnecessary changes to the election system that could improperly disenfranchise qualified Virginians."

#13  I can't wait for that SOB to be out of office. Fortunately, in Virginia, governors can't succeed themselves.

#11  I can remember, not so long ago actually, when California was a red state. My contention for quite some time has been that illegal immigration and voter fraud were the tools Democrats used to turn this state blue.

#9  A delightful idea, Iblis.

This doesn't stop other states from publishing lists of those of their registered voters also registered in Virginia... and forwarding such lists, with proof, to the Feds.

#8  How about instead we require that every registered voter file a tax return in the state where they are registered.

#6  I guess McAuliffe believes it is O.K. to vote in multiple states? Afraid to lose part of the Donk base?

#5  BP, they still would in California, Chicago and NY.

But that's about it.
