VA Republicans using personalized robocalls to try to suppress the vote

Republicans are so afraid to run on their merits that they continue to resort to dirty tricks.

Listen to this robocall (.WAV) being sent to Virginia voters:Tim Daly from Clarendon got a call saying that if he votes Tuesday, he will be arrested.

A recording of his voicemail can be found online at: www.webbforsenate.com/media/phone_message....

The transcript from his voicemail reads:"This message is for Timothy Daly. This is the Virginia Elections Commission. We've determined you are registered in New York to vote. Therefore, you will not be allowed to cast your vote on Tuesday. If you do show up, you will be charged criminally."

Daly has been registered to vote in Virginia since 1998, and he has voted for the last several cycles with no problem. He has filed a criminal complaint with the Commonwealth's attorney in Arlington. More
