Republicans Sue California, Charging Ineligible Voters Are on Voter Rolls

    Three Republican voters are suing California's secretary of state, charging that Democrat Alex Padilla is violating the National Voter Registration Act by failing to ensure that only eligible voters are placed on the voter rolls.

    The federal lawsuit on behalf of the voters, two of them naturalized citizens, is being brought by high-profile GOP lawyer Harmeet Dhillon — a national committeewoman for the Republican National Committee. She has also sued the state over the recent law requiring presidential candidates to release their tax returns in order to appear on the California primary ballot.

    Padilla rejected the suit as a partisan attempt to suppress voter turnout.

Padilla rejected the suit as a partisan attempt to suppress voter turnout.

Well that's laughable! Pretty much no statewide partisan office would be in play. When Kammy was elected Senator her opponent of the ballot was also a Dem. It was considered a major upset in 2018 that one of the two gubernatorial candidates was an R (the Guber got elected instead). Few House seats are ever in play, but could swing either way.
