VirginiaPrimaries; abstract of votes, law-enforcement officer to obtain returns not forwarded.
What it does
Elections; conduct of primaries; abstract of votes; law-enforcement officer to obtain returns not forwarded. Removes the requirement that if the abstract of votes is not received by the State Board of Elections from any county or city within six days after any state primary election, the State Board shall dispatch a law-enforcement officer to obtain it. The bill removes a conflict with an existing provision that requires the State Board to dispatch law-enforcement when the abstract of votes is not received within 10 days after any election.
