Newlin says, “In Virginia, you can’t vote twice. It’s a model system. People aren’t deleted in other states when they are convicted felons, or are judged incompetent by a judge, or when they die.”
“But here we are sent incompetent reports, death statistic reports, and felon reports, so that we can constantly update our systems.”
“Some people think they have committed a felony, when they’ve only committed a misdemeanor. They think they’re ineligible to vote.”
“If you’ve been convicted of a felony, you will be written a letter by us to let you know that you are going to be ineligible to vote. If the felony report is inaccurate, we ask that you call us and let us know.”
“Sometimes felons use other people’s social security numbers or they change theirs slightly.”
