VA Supreme Court Kills Gov. Terry McAuliffe’s Executive Order Giving Felons Voting Rights
In a similar story to President Obama’s executive orders on illegal immigration, Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe’s executive orders granting voting rights to over 200,000 convicted felons was deemed unconstitutional by the Virginia Supreme Court. Not surprising that Gov. McAuliffe would take a page out of Obama’s playbook given that he’s been a Democrat insider since his days as a bundler for Bill Clinton.

In a typical response, McAuliffe said he planned to fast track the applications of over 13,000 felons that have already applied to vote. So, in light of the court’s decision, McAuliffe’s reaction is to disobey the court and give rights to felons anyway. Sound familiar? It should since Obama’s DOJ lawyers systematically deceived lower courts about the Administration’s conduct regarding the renewal of DACA three-year deferrals.

Well this just opened the door for lawsuits to overturn voting results in VA. Don't like the outcome? Just claim that "voter fraud" happened and keep the results wrapped up in the Courts for years. Or force the State to pay millions of dollars to prove these criminals weren't actually voting, or that their votes are thrown out.

Gods, what a mess.


And New York is next.

This is simply another part of the left's plan. Every single traditional institution is a target for destruction, to promote their deification of the state, and the institution of self governance is no less a target than any other. I think they are really sick of pretending to curry the votes of us peons, especially since we had the temerity to vote for the wrong person in 2016.
