Ballot seizure warning
California’s Democratic governor, Gavin Newsom, warned federal judges that the Donald Trump administration might seek search warrants to seize ballots and election materials before the results of next year’s midterm elections are certified. The warning came amid a dispute over the Justice Department’s demand for election records as part of an investigation into noncitizens registering to vote. The administration says more than 20,000 noncitizens are registered in California—a claim the state and experts have questioned. A federal appeals court rejected the administration’s request, while a judge ordered the Justice Department to stop threatening election officials with prosecution. California warned that turning over the records could prevent eligible voters from casting ballots.
