    ❗️Voters❗️ The statewide voter registration system is currently DOWN. This means that any voter coming to vote early in-person can not be checked in on the poll books & will only be able to vote a provisional ballot. We will let you know when the system is back up & running.

    Va. House votes 52-48 to send bill ending school mask mandates to @GovernorVA. House GOP also defeated Dem efforts to make the bill expire in a year and strip out the part dealing with masks
