Election officials nationwide express significant concerns about potential deployment of ICE agents to polling locations during the upcoming midterms, citing contradictory statements from the Trump administration and a broader "attack on elections."
California voters will decide in November on a measure requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration and identification at polling places. The Republican-backed proposal, which gathered enough petition signatures to qualify, aims to strengthen election confidence in the nation's most populous state with over 23 million registered voters. California is currently among 14 states and D.C. that do not require voter ID. Opponents argue the requirements would make voting more difficult for elderly, disabled, and those without driver's licenses.
