4 Oct 24 · 15d ago · 81 articles · 44 posts · 184 comments · 6 sources · development 4 of 4
California's secretary of state and the Los Angeles county registrar opposed the federal demands in legal filings, arguing the request threatens to delay certification of the vote, undermine the legitimacy of the midterms, relies on unreliable federal data, and risks disenfranchising citizens.
“Any election official who knowingly processes the ballot of a noncitizen is opening themselves to legal jeopardy”

BREAKING: The Trump DOJ just sent letters to local election officials across California — every county in the state — demanding they identify potential noncitizens on their voter rolls and set aside their ballots. Local officials would "risk significant federal scrutiny" if they failed to comply.

HAPPENING NOW: A 9th Circuit panel (with 2 Trump appointees and 1 Biden appointee) seems overwhelmingly inclined to side with California and shoot down the Justice Department's bid to force California to segregate 20,000 ballots it has identified as likely noncitizens.

Over the past couple of days, the Trump regime has made clear its plans to subvert the current U.S. general election. In an effort to keep control of the House, the Trump regime is threatening California county clerks who do not cooperate with the regime’s effort to sow unwarranted suspicion about noncitizen voting. https://…

Doesn't matter. By the time the victors of the midterm elections are being seated, Mike Johnson will no longer be speaker or have any authority to do any of that.

Part of me suspects that Trump's DOJ is doing all these shenanigans with ballots in California as a prelude for contesting the election results and declaring them invalid. It's not like the the California Secretary of State is gonna do anything but tell the DOJ to pound sand up their ass with a crochet mallet. Once the dust settles the week of…

Holding firm is an absurd description of his treatment in court. He gets kid glove treatment and outrageous deference, with a token loss every few cases.

Phew, I’m sure this is the last step of the plan and Trump will respect a decision from the 9th Circuit.

The Cali AG should indict the acting US attorney for violating California Elections Code §18581, which makes it illegal to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any person who is exercising powers or duties to administer elections. 58 counts, one for each county. Up to three years in state prison on each.

Blanche says "we don't want to interfere in elections" while actually doing the exact opposite. Totally corrupt DoJ under Blanche. He makes John Mitchell look like a Saint.

Legit American citizens barely show up to vote. People are damn crazy to believe non citizens are lining up to vote for some Joe Schmo who’s spending a fortune to be on a ballot. Non citizens care even less than all the actual citizens that just sit home and don’t vote at all.

Dear California, just ignore them. That’s their strategy, right? Ignoring court orders, actual laws, bulldozing our rights every which way? Give them a taste of their own medicine.

Read the threat at the end. That is the whole letter. The noncitizen hunt is the cover story, the message to county officials is comply or we come for you. Intimidation with a DOJ letterhead is still intimidation.
