The Virginia Black Conservative Forum issued a statement this afternoon regarding the proposed “poll tax” to participate in the RPV Convention:
The Virginia Black Conservative Forum strongly denounces any attempt to effect a “registration fee” on participants to attend a convention to nominate a presidential candidate in 2016. While VBC remains committed to the causes of conservatism, our commitment to those causes requires the condemnation of any effort to disenfranchise voters through a scheme that, at its core, is less about raising money to further RPV’s efforts than it is about guaranteeing that a subset of the party choose its presidential nominee.
Short and to the point. Can’t get much better than that.
