The US Department of Justice has issued a 48-hour ultimatum to California, demanding a review of its voter rolls for individuals suspected of not being citizens. This action comes ahead of the upcoming midterm elections in California. The department is specifically requesting the segregation of absentee ballots cast by this group of voters. The demand centers on concerns regarding non-citizen voting within California’s electoral process. The move follows scrutiny regarding the accuracy of voter lists and potential vulnerabilities in the mail-in voting system. Federal authorities seek to ensure the integrity of the elections in California by verifying the citizenship status of registered voters. The Department of Justice has not publicly detailed the scope of the suspected issue but stresses the need for immediate action before the midterm elections.
