RNC files lawsuit challenging Virginia law allowing non-residents to vote in elections
The Republican National Committee and RITE PAC filed a lawsuit against the Virginia State Board of Elections challenging provisions in state law that allow individuals who have never resided in Virginia or the United States to register and vote in elections. The lawsuit targets Virginia Code sections that permit voting based on a parent's or legal guardian's last Virginia residence before leaving the United States, which the RNC claims violates the Virginia Constitution's residency requirements.
