When Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares announced the formation of an Election Integrity Unit in September, questions swirled about the type of work it would do.
While the attorney general’s office said it’s investigated complaints, provided legal advice, and intervened in three specific legal issues related to the election, the Virginia NAACP is critical of the investigative unit’s scope of work.
On Tuesday, the group said records it obtained from the state Attorney General’s Election Integrity Unit showed no credible reports of election fraud in the most recent election cycle, and no record of “election cheating” dating back to 2008.
