Content: The FBI is investigating reports that dead people were recently registered to vote in Virginia
Local police and the FBI launched an investigation in late September into 19 dead Virginians who had been re-registered to vote in Harrisonburg, Va. The investigation came after a clerk recognized the name on a registration as the recently deceased father of a well-known local judge. In another case, relatives of a dead man who was registered to vote received mail congratulating the man on registering. All the registrations were submitted by a group called HarrisonburgVOTE, which focused on getting voters signed up in the area of James Madison University, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. “Oftentimes we hear our [Democratic] colleagues suggest that voter fraud doesn’t exist in Virginia or is a myth,” state House Speaker William H. Howell said on a conference call about the investigation last month. “ Well, it does indisputably exist.” Advertisement
Democrats rebutted. “Nobody cast a vote.… There’s still no evidence of that going on in the state,” Virginia House Minority Leader David J. Toscano told the Washington Post. “ But there is evidence every time you turn around that the Republicans are trying to make it more difficult for citizens to vote in elections.” A supporter plants signs for a Missouri state representative candidate last month in St. Louis.
