This morning I had a chance to interview someone who I will identify for now by her first name. Lucy is a student at James Madison University, and she comes from the Northern Virginia area where she was registered to vote. About 2-3 weeks ago, Lucy saw a voter registration table on campus when she was walking in between classes. She stopped to fill out a voter registration form to change her voting address from her parents house in Fairfax to her dorm address in Harrisonburg so she could vote in person on election day.
On Wednesday night Lucy went online to check her voter registration status and found out she had not been registered in Harrisonburg- meaning whoever was collecting her form on campus had not turned it in.
This is now a THIRD location where we are hearing about voters in this area being falsely registered. The forms that were collected from the dumpster on Monday that led to the recent indictment came from a local street festival and a registration at the local community college.
It now appears this is more widespread than just these original eight forms- how many people have been disenfranchised by this Republican voter fraud?
Meanwhile the LA Times is now reporting what we told you on Tuesday- there is a major tie with Strategic Allied Consulting. Colin Small worked for Strategic until they were fired by the party last month- but after being "fired", he and his team were immediately rehired under a vendor paid for and supervised by the Republican Party of Virginia, which is why he was running this operation from the GOP Victory Office in Harrisonburg.
I am wondering if the registrations that were thrown away were from African Americans or other of racial make up?
If that is the case than this goes beyond voter fraud and is also a felony hate crime.

I am wondering why Attorney General Cuccinelli has refused to investigate.

I think this is a Federal matter not a state one, but, even so, I do think there needs to be some eyes on Choooch over this!
