Original Note:
Federal law prohibits purging voters within 90 days of an election, despite what VA law allows. Federal law trumps state law (Source: the Supremacy Clause of the US Constitution) If Virginia purged these voters earlier, this move would likely have been legal. https://wjla.com/news/local/youngkin-virginia-voter-rolls-removal-restored-registration-non-us-citizens-election-ballot-security-measures-signed-august-justice-department-federal-court-judges-nonctizens-democrats-republicans
