Tens of thousands of Virginians have had their voting rights restored thanks to a move from Gov. Abigail Spanberger. Spanberger announced that her office has restored voting rights for more than 66,000 people who have served their punishments after being charged with crimes.
Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?
