This California judge is wrong!
Because federal law REQUIRES states to keep voter registration data ACCURATE and CURRENT, and the federal government has jurisdiction to enforce the National Voter Registration Act (commonly known as the “motor voter law”).
I expect this unconstitutional, anti-election-accuracy opinion of Democrat Party U.S. Judge David O. Carter to eventually reach the U.S. Supreme Court for an easy ruling in favor of the Trump Administration’s and Judicial Watch’s efforts to examine the voter rolls and then require that illegals, dead people, and people who’ve moved be removed.
It’s a good start that the Trump Administration is fighting to get illegal aliens off the voter rolls. While we need the DOJ to do a full-scale investigation to expose California election fraud, it’s important and helpful that they’re demanding voter registration data from 40 states, and suing Democrat-Party-run states, including California.
Illegal aliens ARE registered to vote in California – by the millions. It was recently discovered that nearly half a million illegals requested excusal from California jury pools because they weren’t citizens – but they ARE registered voters.
Here’s the judge’s biased blatherings reported on Yahoo News:
A federal judge on Thursday dismissed a U.S. Justice Department lawsuit demanding California turn over its voter rolls, calling the request “unprecedented and illegal” and accusing the federal government of trying to “abridge the right of many Americans to cast their ballots.”
U.S. District Judge David O. Carter, a Clinton appointee based in Santa Ana, questioned the Justice Department’s motivations and called its lawsuit demanding voter data from California Secretary of State Shirley Weber not just an overreach into state-run elections, but a threat to American democracy.
“The centralization of this information by the federal government would have a chilling effect on voter registration which would inevitably lead to decreasing voter turnout as voters fear that their information is being used for some inappropriate or unlawful purpose,” Carter wrote. “This risk threatens the right to vote which is the cornerstone of American democracy.”
52 U.S.C. § 20507 … requires procedures to maintain accurate and current voter registration lists. These requirements govern, among other issues:
- The date by which valid voter registration applications must be accepted and eligible persons registered,
- Changes in a registrant’s address information,
- Limits on removal of names from the voter registration list, and
- Administration of a uniform, nondiscriminatory voter registration list maintenance program that complies with the Voting Rights Act (VRA”).

Jan 12: “Voter fraud alarm: 449,000 non-citizens reportedly excused from jury duty in California, raising red flags on voter rolls”
In a state already notorious for its lax election laws and ballooning non-citizen population, a resurfaced claim is reigniting fierce debate over voter integrity: Did nearly half a million Californians dodge jury duty by admitting they aren’t U.S. citizens—while somehow remaining on the voter registration lists?
The allegation, which has circulated for years but gained fresh traction on social media this weekend, points to a potential massive loophole in California’s “Motor Voter” system, where DMV interactions automatically register eligible voters but, critics argue, fail to weed out the ineligible.
The claim traces back to data from California’s Judicial Council, which reported around 449,000 individuals disqualified from jury service in a single fiscal year due to non-citizen status. Proponents of the narrative assert these same people were pulled from voter rolls for jury pools, exposing widespread non-citizen registration.
“This is how OUT OF CONTROL California is,” blasted conservative influencer Mila Joy in a viral X post that garnered over 36,000 likes and millions of views. “449,000 REGISTERED VOTERS couldn’t perform jury duty because they weren’t citizens. But they are REGISTERED VOTERS! A half a million of them.”
Jan 9: “Oregon election officials to begin purging rolls of inactive voters”
As Oregon kicks off a general election year, Secretary of State Tobias Read is taking what he says is the overdue step of cleaning up the state’s voter rolls. That process could lead to the cancellation of as many as 800,000 registrations … Oregon currently has 3,063,747 registered, active voters. About 800,000 more voters’ registration status is inactive because their mail, including ballots or official notices, from county elections offices has been returned undelivered.
Jan 6: “DOJ sues Arizona, Connecticut for refusing to hand over voter rolls”
The Justice Department has sued Arizona and Connecticut for refusing to hand over their full voter registration lists, making them the 22nd and 23rd states to be targeted by the Trump administration in its litigious campaign over voter data ahead of the midterm elections.
The lawsuits were filed Tuesday, with Attorney General Pam Bondi arguing she is charged by Congress to ensure that states have proper and effective voter registration and voter list maintenance programs.
She also threatened that she has the Civil Rights Act of 1960 to demand the statewide voter registration lists.
“Accurate voter rolls are the foundation of election integrity, and any state that fails to meet this basic obligation of transparency can expect to see us in court,” she said in a statement.
The Justice Department has sent demands for the voter registration rolls to at least 40 states and the District of Columbia, according to the Brennan Center for Justice.
