Supreme Court should allow Virginia to block noncitizens from voting

The Supreme Court should decide immediately to allow Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) to take the logical and lawful step of removing some 1,600 noncitizens from Virginia’s voting rolls.

On Aug. 7, Youngkin signed Executive Order 35, which, among a series of other basic election procedures, includes what should be an unexceptional requirement to strip from the voting lists anyone who identified themselves as noncitizens when filling out forms for the Department of Motor Vehicles. Repeat: self-identified noncitizens.
