Down here in Virginia -- specifically, Harrisonburg, Rockingham County -- the voter suppression story that broke last week is getting deeper and more weird by the minute.
First, let's review the bidding.
-- A Harrisonburg, VA, business owner observed an individual drive up to a dumpster behind his business, toss in a trash bag, and drive away.
-- The trash bag contained completed voter registrations forms. Deputies took the forms to the courthouse where they were processed before the registration deadline.
-- The guy who tossed the forms turned out to be 23-year-old Colin Small, an employee of PinPoint, a firm under contract to the Republican Party of Virginia to conduct voter registration and assistance activities.
Here's a link to the whole story at Not Larry Sabato -- read all the articles.
Here's the first NLS article.
Now for the weird stuff -- below the squiggle.
Here's the latest from NLS. This is a twisted tale involving the local registrar, her son, members of the local election commission, and a VA state senator who sees the next VA Attorney General each time he looks at a mirror.
So the forms disappear from the office, reappear in another city, get mailed in after the deadline from a fake address, and the registrar's son- who lives in that city where the forms ended up- starts calling people, lying about who he is, falsely identifies himself the same way the forms were falsely misaddressed and tries to threaten those who were upset about the situation.
You really need to go to the link and read the article posted today and all the previous articles.
And you folks thought Ohio was the center of election fraud!!!!!
