About that guy in VA who was caught trying to destroy those voter registrations.

Were all or just some destroyed? Or was their destruction totally prevented? How will those people whose names are on those registrations and who stand to be disenfranchised be protected? Were they issued some sort of temporary card at the time of registration or was the registration form the only evidence? Anyone have any idea about that end of this crime?

recovered. I know earlier today, someone on the radio said "if you recently registered in Va. you should check with the state to see if you ARE registered." I haven't heard anyone say what the sure is. I think today was the last day to register.

Organization and numbers to call. If they didnt get a voter card. The receipt showed they had registered -I don't know whether it would work to get an ID after the deadline.
