When it comes to elections, voters should equate voting with transparency and clarity.  They shouldn’t equate it with luck, backroom deals, and deception.  Republican A.G. Bob McDonnell continues to bring a commonsense approach to leadership in Virginia.  From the Washington Post:

Attorney General Robert F. McDonnell unveiled a package of election reform proposals Tuesday aimed at reducing long lines at polls, adding workers to count ballots and improving voter registration lists.

McDonnell, the Republican nominee for governor next year, and Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling (R) have also indicated that they will back legislative proposals to allow voters to receive absentee ballots faster and eliminate inconsistencies between state and federal law on absentee ballots.

“Democracy is alive and well in Virginia. We saw that clearly this past Election Day, with a record number of first-time voters,” McDonnell said. “However, for our democratic process to stay healthy, we must constantly seek prudent reforms and improvements based on what we learn each election.”
