SPECIAL REPORT: A Virginia county's entire election staff has quit their jobs after being hounded by baseless voter fraud allegations.
Several residents submitted Freedom of Information Act requests in pursuit of more information about what was going on.
Rebecca Ragland Kelly, the deputy registrar in Buckingham County whose mother was served with a protective order, was the first to quit on Feb. 17. Randy Biggers, a Republican from Buckingham County who had volunteered as a poll worker for many years, hoped to take his place. He started attending meetings of the county GOP last May and said he was alarmed by how Christian and McManus “bashed” Taylor at meetings.
“This is not a Democrat versus Republican issue — it’s not,” said Thomas Jordan Miles III, the Democratic supervisor.“If there’s voter fraud in Atlanta, if you watched that stuff in Atlanta and it bothered you, go to Atlanta. If you watched the stuff in Maricopa County and it bothered you, go there,” Pullen said.
He said many of the issues raised by local Republicans indicated they didn’t understand how elections are run in the county. Carolyn Sherayko, a Democrat on the Lynchburg County Electoral Board and former registrar in the county, resigned her post in late March because the Republican members on the board were ousting the registrar and deputy registrar in her county.
