I thought the US Supreme Court was the one that acted. The ruling being overturned was a federal ruling, IIRC.

Those bass turds have probably already voted. I’m pretty sure that Harriz’s RATS loaded them on buses and went with them to help them jump the lines.

VA seems like a bit of a long-shot for Trump, but it would be amazing if Youngkin’s efforts resulted in an upset there.

I believe you can see if they have voted.

The ruling will impact thousands on the state’s voter rolls.

According to the headline, the ruling will affect 1,600 ballots, not the thousand noted in the only line of the article excerpted.

If the postered had posted more of the article, it would have become apparent, that his headline was not correct. The word Virginia does not appear in it.

He should have shown it as Headline [Virginia] and then provided more of the article as context.

The [US] Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to take up an emergency challenge from Virginia, temporarily halting a federal judge’s decision that ordered it to reinstate hundreds of potential noncitizens to the state’s voter rolls.

The decision is a victory for Gov. Glenn Youngkin and comes just days after the state of Virginia filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court to halt a lower court decision ordering it to restore the names of some 1,600 individuals to its voter rolls.

At the heart of the case is whether Virginia’s voter removal process violates a so-called quiet period under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), or a federal law requiring states to halt all “systematic” voter roll maintenance for a 90-day period before a federal election.

That argument pitted the Department of Justice — which sued the state over its removal program earlier this month — against Youngkin, who insisted the state’s process is “individualized” and conducted in accordance with state and federal law.

...yes, my beloved Commonwealth of Virginia has been a shade of purple for quite a number of years...we moved there in the very early 1970s and it was a solidly conservative state, but in the intervening decades, it has gone more liberal...if Trump takes Virginia it will be quite a feat....

"According to the headline, the ruling will affect 1,600 ballots, not the thousand noted in the only line of the article excerpted."

Headline is wrong. It affects 1600 voter registrations, not 1600 ballots. The effort came about when individuals self-identified as non-citizens through some other Virginia state system (driver licenses, most likely). They were then cross-referenced with the voter registration rolls, and any matches had their registrations removed. The actual removal was performed only after the state first attempted to contact the individual to sort it out, and then 14 days had passed.

Allow them back on and investigate every one of them for voter fraud.

Announcing this ahead of time will have a greater impact than removing them.

It’s close in Virginia. Trump may not flip some of these traditional blue states but he is making them more red.

You are correct, Sir - it was the U. S. Supremes.

It will only effect the dead and non-resident democrat votes.

SCOTUS has spoken on the matter earlier today.
