This is tragic. We've (@VCIJ_Tweet @WHRO) partnered with @OpenSecretsDC. It's a top-notch newsroom, uncompromisingly thorough and incredibly skilled at analyzing campaign finance data. They see stories others don't. Don't let these lights go dark.

Those of you who are #Va citizens and were kicked off the voter rolls in @GovernorVa’s controversial pre-election purge can still vote today.

That’s because state law allows Virginians to register at the polls on Election Day and cast a provisional ballot.
