Virginia adopts certificate of residence as poll tax substitute
Gov. Harrison signs a two bill package establishing a certificate of residence to replace the poll tax for federal elections in Virginia. The plan, approved 77 to 21 in the House and 28 to 12 in the Senate, keeps the poll tax for state elections and ties eligibility to timely payment or a filed certificate. The measure aims to align with anticipated 24th Amendment ratification and faces opposition from anti-poll tax groups while Byrd forces defend its need to protect federal election integrity.
