Chairman Mullins: Apparent Voter Fraud in Fairfax Demands a Full Investigation

RPV Chairman Pat Mullins issued the following statement:

"The discovery this week that 17 people in Fairfax County apparently voted twice in the last Presidential election is disturbing. Time and time again we hear that voter fraud is myth, and naysayers argue that those who express concerns about the integrity of our elections have only the worst of intentions. Yet once again we find that voter fraud is real."

"Even one instance of fraud is too many. I call on the Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney's office and Attorney General Mark Herring to investigate these 17 cases, and if multiple votes were cast in the same election, to prosecute the offenders to the fullest extent of the law."

"Just weeks ago, Democrats asked for an investigation into alleged fraud in a party nomination contest. Voter fraud is a bipartisan concern. The integrity of our elections is too important to allow even one case of fraud to go undiscovered -- or unpunished."
