GOP voters must sign loyalty oath
Voters who participate in February's Republican presidential primary should be prepared to sign an oath swearing their loyalty to the Republican Party.
The State Board of Elections yesterday approved a state Republican Party request to require all who apply for a Republican primary ballot first vow in writing that they will vote for the party's presidential nominee next fall.
There is no practical way to enforce the oath.
Virginia does not require voters to register by party, and for years the state's Republicans have fretted that Democrats might meddle in their open primaries.
Virginia Democrats aren't seeking such an oath for their presidential primary, which also is scheduled for Feb. 12.

I'm a VA democrat. I like Mamie's idea.
Seriously, I wouldn't sign a loyalty oath for anyone for anything.
Period.

"There is no practical way to enforce".
More creepy wankery from the GOP.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
