Supreme Court Ruling in Virginia

The recent U.S. Supreme Court decision allows Virginia to remove approximately 1,600 voters from its registration rolls, which has sparked significant controversy. This ruling, made just days before the election, is based on an executive order from Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin, aiming to exclude individuals who responded negatively on their citizenship status in driver's license forms. Critics argue that this rapid removal violates the National Voter Registration Act, which prohibits such actions close to an election, potentially disenfranchising eligible voters. Although those affected can still vote through same-day registration, the implications of this decision could shape future voting laws and accessibility across various states.
