More than 40% of names on DOJ list of alleged noncitizens not on California’s voter rolls: analysis
The UCLA review found 8,880 names on the Justice Department list did not match California voter files, and at least 22 were U.S. citizens.
- A UCLA Voting Rights Project analysis revealed that 42%—or 8,880 names—on the Justice Department's list of potential noncitizen voters in California do not appear on the state's voter rolls.
- The Justice Department demanded California election officials flag 20,930 names for investigation, requiring officials to separate ballots on Election Day under threat of prosecution for noncompliance.
- Researchers found at least 22 individuals on the list are confirmed citizens, with many more likely misidentified, revealing widespread errors in the federal government's data.
- Xavier Becerra, the Democratic candidate for California governor, co-signed the filing alongside the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, asserting the demands endanger voting rights.
- Multiple judges have previously rejected similar demands as unconstitutional, while the Trump administration previously called the list a "fishing expedition" when objecting to its release.
