Virginia GOP Will Require Voters To Sign ‘Loyalty Oath’ - ABC News#.Tv0SNctTxVs.twitter
Voters do not register with a party in Virginia; thus the commonwealth’s primary is open to all residents, not just members of the Republican party. The oath, which reads “I, the undersigned, pledge that I intend to support the nominee of the Republican party for president,” is intended to deter non-Republicans from participating in the process unless they are serious about supporting the eventual GOP candidate.“
I think there was a desire to try and keep the Republican party for Republicans,” explains Kyle Kondik, a political analyst for the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics. “It’s the one barrier to entry that the Republican party can put up to try and keep voting limited to people in the club.”
Between loyalty oaths, government ids that prevents a large portion of the electorate from voting to prevent fantasy fake voting is what democracy doesn't look like.
