"NO" to proposed regulation regarding postmarks on Absentee Ballots.
 

"NO" to proposed regulation regarding postmarks on Absentee Ballots!

The VA State Board of Elections has NO authority to amend Virginia's statute that requires a returned envelope for an Absentee Ballot to be postmarked so as to ensure it is submitted by 7:00 pm on Election Day.  As a registered Virginia voter, I demand a public hearing on your blatant attempt to manipulate our voting process and undermine our election's integrity.
