Commenter: Richard J. Martone, citizen and voter

Protecting legitimate voters rights is essential to our entire civil process
 

I agree with the earlier comment from Margaret Luca.

I would like to add the following thoughts.

To infringe on a legitimate voters right is unacceptable. I served 10 years as an election officer simply because I believe my neighbors rights must be protected from political forces with dark motives and I believe fair elections must be protected by citizens. This attempt to disenfranchise voters on sloppy penmanship or minor defects is deplorable. Perhaps someone should remind Mr. McDonnell that Catholics like him were once prohibited from public office in this Commonwealth.
