Republican National Convention (RNC) Chairman Michael Whatley applauded the Supreme Court’s decision to let Virginia remove noncitizens from voter rolls. 

“Thankfully, sanity reigns at the Supreme Court and we got a really good ruling there for Governor Youngkin and [Attorney General] Jason Miyares, who’ve done a really good job working on this issue,” Whatley said on the “John Solomon Reports” podcast Thursday.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Virginia was allowed to remove about 1,600 suspected noncitizens from its voting rolls.

The Justice Department sued Virginia earlier this month for removing the noncitizens from the voter rolls and a federal judge originally ruled that the suspected noncitizens had to go back on the voter rolls.

“The fact that this case had to go to the Supreme Court is really pretty troubling,” Whatley said. 

Whatley said that the RNC is working hard to make it easy to vote in elections. 

“We spent a lot of time being criticized for trying to suppress the vote,” Whatley said. “No, we’re not. We really do want to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat.”
