Suhas Subramanyam Wants to Allow the Dead to Vote

From Red Virginia News

It is a fundamental tenet, and indeed the foundation of the democratic process that only those who are allowed to vote can vote.  You would think that every legislator would adhere to that principle. THINK AGAIN!

Suhas Subramanyam, Democratic candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives to represent Virginia’s  10^th Congressional District stands firm against this right   While serving in the Virginia House of Delegates, Suhas voted against Republican House Bill 1377  which called for cancelling the voter registration of “persons known to be deceased.”  It defies all logic to understand why any politician would vote against such a bill. Maintaining accurate voters rolls protects the very sanctity of our elections.   In its 2023 Annual List Maintenance Report, the Virginia Department of Elections stated that they removed from the Virginia voters rolls 77,348 deceased voters.  To put this in perspective, in 2021, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin won his seat by a statewide margin of only 63,688 votes.  Yes, accuracy of voter rolls matters.

Subramanyan was joined by 41 of his Democratic delegates in voting against this sensible legislation to protect election integrity.  Ultimately, HB1377 passed the House but was sent to its grave by a Senate committee controlled by more progressive Democrats including local legislators Jennifer Boysko and John Bell.

If you’re tempted to write this off as a one-time misunderstanding, consider House Bill 1454 and Senate Bill 246 designed to remove the identifying features that distinguish between citizens and non-citizens on state-issued IDs; or House Bill 1534 prohibiting a voter to formally challenge another voter’s eligibility to vote; or even House Bill 942 cleverly calculated to encourage illegal voters by prohibiting polling places within police stations.  Indeed, Governor Youngkin vetoed 13 Democratic-passed bills intended to undermine election integrity in Virginia.

Suhas has proven himself to be an extreme progressive who supports the irresponsible destruction of election integrity in our Republic. We cannot afford to promote him to the US Congress.
