BLUF

The Justice Department is asking a federal judge to consider sanctions against an immigrant-rights group that disclosed its analysis of a list of alleged noncitizen voters in California. The group’s filing said more than 40% of the people on the list were not in the state’s voter file.

Why it matters

The dispute concerns federal efforts to check voter eligibility and could affect public confidence in election administration. The articles describe a court fight, not a finding that noncitizens voted.
