We can assume she’s a Dem since that is omitted and the media is suppressing her arrest.

Former Prince William top election official indicted on corruption charges
Updated 11 a.m. Thursday, September 8 — Michele White, the former Prince William County Voter Registrar, faces fraud charges in multiple incidents during the November 2020 General Election, court documents state.
The county’s current voter registrar found irregularities in the 2020 General Election, prompting the investigation.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares handed down the charges today by a grand jury in Manassas. According to the indictment, White neglected her duty as an election officer. Between November 3 and November 2020, she made a false statement, and between August 1 and December 31, 2020, she again neglected her duties, the indictment states.
The Attorney General declined to comment due to the ongoing nature of the investigation. In April 2022, Virginia’s State Board of Elections unanimously voted to ask the Attorney General to investigate “irregularities or deviations from administration procedures during in Prince William County during the 2020 General Election,” according to Board of Elections meeting minutes.
White came to Prince William County in February 2015 to work in the Office of Elections, overseeing ballot counting and voter registration. She quietly left the office in April 2021. Phillip Campbell, the former Prince William County Board of Supervisors Clerk, came out of retirement to manage the office on an interim basis.
Eric Olsen, the county’s current voter registrar, took the reins in November 2021, following the General Election. Olsen tells Potomac Local News White’s actions did not affect the election’s outcome and that he reported the discrepancies to the State Board of Elections, prompting the investigation.
“In 2022, the Electoral Board and new Director of Elections have built an entirely new leadership team that is dedicated to fair and accurate elections. Many improvements and best practices have been adopted to ensure a safe and transparent voting experience for the voters of Prince William County,” Olsen told Potomac Local News. He declined to elaborate on the alleged discrepancies.
“Our members are pleased to see Virginia’s attorney general, Jason Miyares, taking strong actions to root out corruption and gross negligence in public office. The decisiveness of the Attorney General in prosecuting this case should send a strong warning that Virginia, under the leadership of Governor Glenn Youngkin and Attorney General Miyares, takes election integrity seriously. They will ensure that the 2022 or 2023 elections are fair,” states Prince William County Republican Committee Chairman Denny Daugherty.
Under White’s tenure, Prince William County doubled the number of absentee in-person voting locations during the 2020 General Election, which saw Joseph R. Biden defeat Donald J. Trump.
Not only were the election results contested in states like Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, but it was also the first year Virginia allowed voters to vote absentee in person for 45 days leading up to Election Day.
The news of White’s indictment comes on the same day Virginia State Senator Amanda Chase (R-Chesterfield) called on Gov. Glenn Youngkin to mandate the state elections office use only paper ballots when voters head to the polls to choose congressional representatives in November.
“The people do not have confidence in the election process and that their sacred ballot will count. They do not trust voting computers. The only way to restore that trust is paper ballots and hand counts,” said Chase.

Michele White was the county’s registrar from 2015 to 2021, when she resigned abruptly with no public explanation. Before that, she served in a similar role in nearby Culpeper County.
so she prob had frickery in multiple counties.

Under White’s leadership, Prince William County made significant gains in early absentee voting. The county ranked near the top of the state for early voting ahead of the 2016 election.
In 2020, early voting locations doubled in Prince William, and the county set records for early, absentee ballots cast. The achievement coincided with changes in state laws that expanded access to early voting.
The electoral board expects to fill the vacancy on its own board in the coming weeks, Scarborough said. The Prince William Democratic Committee has submitted a nominee to Prince William Circuit Court Chief Judge Steven A. Smith for consideration, Scarborough said.
According to state law, partisan control of the three-member electoral board matches that of the sitting Virginia governor. Because Gov. Ralph Northam is a Democrat, two of the three electoral board members are also Democrats.

Correct. They destroyed our election process. The democrats stole that 2020 Presidential Election. We know they stole it, and they know they stole it.
IMO more disturbing than the theft of that election? The institutions and men able to confront this theft were AWOL. Do you hear that John Roberts? Are you listening Mike Pence? Do you even care Bill Barr?
When history students chronicle the collapse of our Republic in 100+ years, the betrayal of these three men (and others) will be included in the list of traitors. When our Constitutional Republic needed them the most, they hide like rats in the dark.
A curse on all their houses.

Hopefully about 400 more people get arrested over the massive voter fraud of 2020, including more high ranking official leftist shite.

Just hearing that quote, you know she’s a Republican. No Dem would ever say that.

What follows after "there was no fraud" and "there was no widespread fraud"?

Actually they did back a few years ago. Plenty of footage of Elizabeth Warren and others had questions about the voting computers. It’s just been whitewashed from memory by the media.

Not enough to change the outcome.

When you compare how much TRUMP over performed in VA vs. 2016 and how Romney did in 2012, there is no doubt TRUMP won VA.
