I'm concerned about the news that Virginia may be considering the possibility of excluding absentee ballots because of poor handwritten signatures.  I have always had lousy penmanship, but it satisfies my credit card companies, my bank, the IRS, my local election board, and a host of federal agencies with which I'm forced to interact with on a regular basis (e.g., TSA employees).  My scribble is mine, has been with me for nearly 60 years, and probably will accompany me to the grave.  It shouldn't be grounds for disqualifying for to vote in the Commonwealth.
