Now that Virginia has photo ID, cheating is more difficult for the Dems which is why this race is so close. The Dems now must count on “malfunctioning” electronic voting machines to make it happen. The Scantron machine Fairfax County uses now gives the voter no confirmation that it registered the correct vote.
You're forgetting, what now may be the Democrats' greatest source of illegal votes: non-citizens, including legal immigrants.
Are non-citizens registering to vote? See "License, ID card policies stir concerns over illegal immigrants voting", excerpted below (noting red text for VA):
As more states begin providing illegal immigrants and their children with driver's licenses and ID cards, officials are concerned some also are registering to vote -- some by mistake, and others on purpose...With over 2 million votes cast, Gillespie is less than 8.4 thousand votes (half of the margin plus one) short of beating Democrat Warner. That less than half a percent of the total vote. (See "politico.com)...While only U.S. citizens {and not even legal immigrants} can vote, only four states require proof before registering: Kansas, Arizona, Georgia and Alabama.
States can also compare voter rolls to a federal immigration database known as SAVE, or the Systemic Alien Verification System for Entitlements.
Four states tried, but the ACLU and others sued, stopping Virginia, Iowa and Florida from purging voter rolls of non-citizens.
The problem came to light recently in North Carolina, which compared its voter rolls against a federal immigration database. The cross-check of 10,000 voters found 1,425 likely non-citizen voters, including 109 illegal immigrants or so-called "Dreamers." Almost 10 percent registered to vote when getting their driver's license. But election officials say the problem is nationwide.
Are non-citizens voting in US elections? See "Could non-citizens decide the November election?" - Washington Post, excerpted below:
"How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010."
Who is ignorant/dishonest enough to claim that a Democrat win in Virginia, by such a small margin, would not have very likely been decided by non-citizen voters - with the help of the ACLU.
There's a reason why Open Borders is the Left's grand strategy for permanent one party rule.
That is less than half a percent of the total vote
