Don't remove postmark requirement on my Virginia ballot: that's another open door for fraud
 

Removing the requirement for a postmark by election day is just another removal of a safeguard for free and fair elections.  The Board of Elections has a duty to uphold elections BY ELECTION DAY. I am a Virginian who feels my vote will be cancelled out if you keep removing safeguards.
