Very funny, except ... voter registrations in VA counties hosting colleges with significant numbers of out of state students skyrocketed in ‘08. It had NOTHING to do with the R candidate, and EVERYTHING to do with the D candidate, and those working for his election, such as ACORN who recruited heavily on those campuses.
The R’s in the state tried to enforce the laws, but the state’s electoral board was under the control of the then-governor, and current DNC chair, Tim Kaine.
And, many actual Virginians may not have so much liked McCain as they adored his running mate. Then, again, VA has a massive USN presence in Tidewater, and McCain would be generally well-received there.
It is more than coincidental that VA went Dem for the first time since 1964. And I for one don’t much appreciate out of state students registering and voting here, in violation of our Commonwealth’s laws.
My apologies - I was just kidding.
Vote fraud is rampant but inexcusable, IMO.
Elected officials that fail to enforce the law fairly and objectively have no business holding office.
