U.S. District Judge Patricia Tolliver Giles, a Biden appointee, has ordered the state to reinstate over 1,600 self-identified noncitizens previously removed from Virginia's voter rolls.
The Biden regime Gestapo Department of Justice, through Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke, filed the lawsuit, claiming Virginia's recent efforts to clean up its voter rolls violated the National Voter Registration Act's "Quiet Period Provision." This rule restricts states from carrying out systematic voter roll maintenance within 90 days of a federal election.
The DOJ's intervention has been widely criticized by Virginia's conservative leaders as an overreach, suggesting the federal government is bending state election laws for political gain.
Judge Giles, siding with the DOJ, stated that Virginia's voter verification program was too "Systematic" and lacked sufficient individualized assessments.
She promptly ordered Virginia to halt its roll maintenance program and restore the names of over 1,600 individuals to the voter rolls.
In her ruling, Giles argued, "Defendant's program has curtailed the right of eligible voters to cast their ballots in the same manner as other eligible voters," suggesting Virginia's system may infringe on voter rights, despite the affected individuals themselves declaring noncitizen status.
It would have been unbelievable-wait, it would have been illegal for me to vote.
