Description
Jury commissioners; lists of unqualified persons transmitted to State Board of Elections. Requires jury commissioners to transmit to the State Board of Elections a list of those persons not qualified to serve as jurors as a result of (i) not being a citizen of the United States, (ii) no longer being a resident of the Commonwealth, (iii) being a resident of another county or city in the Commonwealth, (iv) having been convicted of a felony and not having had voting rights restored, or (v) having been adjudicated incapacitated. The bill requires the State Board provide such a list to the general registrars for purposes of cancelling voter registration but prohibits cancellation of a voter's registration solely because his name appears on such list in the 60 days prior to any election.

Comments
The ACLU of Virginia is opposed to this legislation. In accordance with the National Voter Registration Act, a voter's registration may not be cancelled within 90 days of an election and Virginia law permits voters 30 days to reply to a notice of cancellation from a general registrar.
