Are The Democrats Afraid To Let Military Vote?

In last year’s election there were several problems with absentee military ballots.  Virginia was one of the states with a problem getting the ballots out for our brave men and women in the military.

The day before Election Day 2008, the McCain campaign filed a complaint in the Eastern District of Virginia to force Virginia to count military absentee ballots that came in after Election Day.  The case has gone on with the Department of Justice replacing the McCain campaign. There were filings last month and will likely be a hearing this month.

The Virginia State Board of Elections argued in their most recent filing that they have no legal obligation to send out military absentee ballots in a timely manner.  The State of Virginia has argued in a federal court filing that they can legally send out absentee ballots to active duty soldiers the day before an election.
 
The Democratic Chairwoman of the Virginia State Board of Election (appointed by the Democratic National Committee Chair Tim Kaine, in his capacity as Virginia Governor) Jean Cunningham just claimed a legal basis for massively raising the barrier to voting for soldiers at war.  What are the Democrats afraid of?

Some counties in Virginia haven’t sent out absentee ballots yet in violation of their own laws.  If Virginia prevails, there would be a legal argument for putting the ballots of active duty military at the back of the bus, as it were.  The elitist progressive Democrats are denying the brave men and women in uniform their right to vote.

If ballots were even to be sent out in a reasonable time, a question is them getting back in time. Representative Kevin McCarthy, Representative Dan Boren, Senator John Cornyn, and Senator Mark Begich have a proposal to have DoD pay for ballots to be returned by express mail, but elitist progressive Steny Hoyer and Nancy Pelosi are blocking consideration in the House, even though it passed the Senate last year.

The state of Virginia, Hoyer, and Pelosi are showing how unpatriotic they are.  Our brave men and women are in harm’s way and this unpatriotic group is attempting to block their right to vote.  Again elitist progressive Pelosi and the Democrats show how unethical and unpatriotic they are.
