Virginia's new Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger has just announced that she is signing an executive order to keep ICE agents away from polling places.
Why do you suppose such a thing would be necessary?
Democrats assure us that illegal aliens are not voting because they are forbidden from doing so by law. So why would they be worried about ICE showing up at polling places? It just doesn't make any sense.
NBC News reported:
Virginia Gov. Spanberger to sign order on dealing with federal agents at polling places
Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger said Tuesday that she plans to issue an executive order on Wednesday to help election workers respond if federal agents show up at polling sites in Virginia.
Speaking at a conference hosted by the Center for American Progress, a progressive think tank, Spanberger said the order would include details on “how Virginia state employees or people working in support of Virginia’s state-run elections can react to, in this particular case, federal agents who might be appearing at a location where the worry is that they’re principally there to intimidate or scare people.”
Some election officials and Democratic politicians have worried that President Donald Trump — who routinely makes false claims of widespread voter fraud — might interference in this year’s midterm elections, which are run by the state and local officials across the country.
“Throughout history, we have seen efforts at intimidating voters. My worry is that we will continue to see those heightened,” Spanberger said. “The reality is that the challenges and the fear that people might have when going to the polling place is real.”
Here's a video of Spanberger announcing the EO while speaking at a progressive conference:

Again, if illegals aren’t voting, then why is any of this even necessary?
Democrats do not want honest elections. They want power. That is all.
I tell you she is flat out stupid.
They know the Law..............
If she can do that (she can’t), why not sign an EO limiting federal taxes on Virginia residents so the state could increase its tax rate and pull in more for itself?
Governor AWFUL and Democrats need illegal aliens voting. They can’t get enough of it no matter who knows!
No you bitch. You don't get to do that. A state government cannot control the movements of Federal agents in the performance of their duties.
This is "insurrection."
Im a fairly big supporter of states rights but this is a matter of immigration control and that’s clearly a federal matter. I think O.G. Whataschnozzle*is going to lose this one.
* Just so you know how freakin old I am.
Speaking of VA and ICE...
Homeland Security
@DHSgov
This illegal alien who EXPOSED HIS GENITALS to one woman and then tried to ABDUCT another was previously RELEASED by Fairfax County sanctuary politicians.
Despite being arrested for drug trafficking in 2024, sanctuary politicians REFUSED to hand this predator over to ICE and released him from jail.
@GovernorVA and Virginia sanctuary politicians must commit to honoring @ICEgov’s detainer and NOT RELEASE him back into our communities.

Moises Domingo Rico Rosales, a criminal illegal alien from Nicaragua, EXPOSED himself to one woman in a park and then attempted to ABDUCT another woman on the SAME DAY. Show more
