FBI and local police are investigating how at least 19 dead Virginians were recently re-registered to vote.
One case came to light after relatives of a deceased man received a note congratulating him for registering, Attorney Marsha Garst said Thursday.
"His family members were very distraught," said Garst.
A clerk recognized the name of Richard Allen Claybrook Sr., who died in 2014 at age 87, because his son is a well-known local judge. She happened to recall that the judge's father had died.
"He was a retired Fairfax County elementary school principal and had fought in World War II," said his son, retired Harrisonburg General District Court Judge Richard Allen Claybrook Jr. "So our family is very disgusted that they would pick his name, because he was such a law-abiding citizen devoted to public service."
All of the forms had been submitted by a private group that was working to register voters on the campus of James Madison University, according to the Harrisonburg registrar's office. The group was not identified. No charges have been filed.
Republicans in the state House of Delegates, who in recent years have supported tighter voter ID laws, held a conference call with reporters to call attention to the investigation.
House Minority Leader David J. Toscano (D-Charlottesville) said the case was not proof of voter fraud because no one had actually managed to cast a vote in the names of the dead.
"First of all, there was no voter fraud they caught him," Toscano said. "Nobody cast a vote. There's still no evidence of that going on in the state. But there is evidence every time you turn around that the Republicans are trying to make it more difficult for citizens to vote in elections."

Bump for later
Looks like all those Northeasterners who moved to VA, brought, not only their stupid Left voting habits, but also brought their illegal tricks that they have used up North with them.
I pray Virginia is vigilant this voting season.
Anyone want to forward this to the US Attorney out there? Or p'rhaps Barr or the White House?
We do not register by party in Virginia.
So neither party affiliation nor proof of life are required. Thanks for the info.
So, that means anyone can vote in either party's primary in your state?
Theyre probably a Russian based commie group. Finally proof the Ruskies affected the vote.
Triple crown would be registering a dead, convicted felon & illegal alien - again.
So what do you think the person who falsely registered intended to do, House Minority Leader David J. Toscano?
I am so tired of Democrats, because not a one of them is honest.
So does that mean if I commit a robbery but am caught, I have not committed a robbery?
I think I have a pretty good idea how Schillary won the popular vote.

Lifetime loss of voting right
Illegals get automatic deportation of entire family
He was born in 1927.
Was 14 when the war broke out so I guess he went in at closer to the end of the war.
It just struck me as a young age to have been in WWII.
But mathematically it makes sense.
Not that this has anything to do with the article :)
For example, consider the tragic case of the WWII vet who died in 2014 and is now being disenfranchised. Those Republicans should be ashamed of themselves.
I wonder how many other dead DemocRATs are in danger of having their votes disenfranchised also?
Let's just skip right over identity theft, perjury for lying on the document, conspiracy to commit fraud, etc.

...seems like that that is an important element of the story...
Betting the dead people all voted democrat.
This just verifies how the dems won back control of the House of Representatives in 2018.
