Virginia Legislature Passes Bill Cutting All Presidential Petitions from 10,000 to 5,000 Signatures

On February 19, the Virginia House passed SB 690, which cuts the number of signatures for all presidential petitions (both presidential primary, and general election petitions) from 10,000 signatures to 5,000 signatures. The bill had already passed the Senate, so now it goes to the Governor. The vote was unanimous. Thanks to Kevin Hayes for this news. This news will help to bolster the North Carolina ballot access improvement bill, which will be introduced in a week.
