3. About voters who move
Sat Nov 15, 2025, 08:38 AM

From the OP:

alleged that hundreds of thousands of Georgia voters may have voted illegally in recent elections because they had moved, but had voted in their former jurisdictions.


In Virginia, if you move within the state but have not updated your address in voting records, you can vote in your old location up to 30 days after moving PROVIDED the voter fills out on the spot a new voter registration form with their new address and shows proof of the new address. Of course, if a voter shows up at his/her old precinct, says "I moved two weeks ago" but actually moved six weeks ago, there's no way to check. I suspect -- even if there is a bit of truth in the claim -- that what actually happened was voters moved, voted in their old precinct during the grace period (Georgia law probably has a grace period), and that's what happened.
