Legal filing questions Trump’s claims of non-citizen voting in California
Legal filing challenges Trump's non-citizen voting claims in California.
Context
What happened: CHIRLA filed a UCLA data analysis with the court questioning the accuracy of the Trump administration's list of "likely non-citizen" voters sent to California before the midterms.
Key numbers: 42 percent of 8,880 names checked were not in California voter files.
Why it matters: The filing says the errors endanger voting rights of CHIRLA's members and clients, and raises concerns that eligible citizens could have votes denied if the administration wins its lawsuit.
