The Spin

It's very unlikely that this voter purge will change the results of any races in blue-state Virginia. However, as the Republican-controlled Supreme Court has allowed this state to ignore federal voting rights law, other states may follow suit and defy the National Registration Voter Act's 90-day ban on purges and create a nationwide chaos.

GOPWith this emergency order, the Supreme Court has stepped in to ensure election integrity in Virginia ahead of Nov. 5 vote, preventing that noncitizens are able to cast a valid ballot. On top of that, this legal battle has further shown that Democrats effectively want noncitizens to vote.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 55% chance that the 2024 US presidential election will also be considered fraudulent by the losing party, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
