Trump's bid to block California mail ballots over 'non-citizens' hits court roadblock
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported19h ago
A United States appeals court has denied a request by the Trump administration to prevent California from tabulating mail-in ballots cast by individuals on a list of alleged non-citizens. The legal challenge represents a continuation of the administration's ongoing efforts to address voter eligibility and non-citizen voting concerns.
The Department of Justice had sought to block the counting of these specific votes as part of broader disputes over electoral procedures. The recent ruling serves as a procedural roadblock to the administration's attempts to intervene in the state's processing of mail ballots.
