We now have confirmed a voter suppression telephone effort, at least in Arlington. It is essential that anyone who learns of such an incident capture relevant details and report them IMMEDIATELY.
We have confirmed at least one instance in NOVA where a person has called a registered voter who has voted consistently in Arlington since 1998, telling him that he will be criminally prosecuted if he tries to vote in Virginia this year.

If you, or anyone you know, receives such a call, please do the following:

1. Request the name, telephone number and email address of the caller.

2. Carefully take down the facts--what happened, what was said.

3. If the caller reports a telephone call or message, try to obtain the
phone number from which the call was made to the caller. Urge the caller to preserve any recorded version of the call. Let him/her know that an attorney from the Democratic Party will be calling them back shortly.

4. If the caller received a writing, have the caller fax or email a copy of
the writing. Also, please find out if it was mailed or hand-delivered. Urge
the caller to preserve the writing. Let him/her know that an attorney from
the Democratic Party will be calling them back shortly.

5. IMMEDIATELY contact me if you have a confirmed incident of attempts at voter suppression. Contact number: (number suppressed) (c). Email:
