A federal appeals court on Monday dismissed the DOJ's effort to force California election officials to set aside thousands of ballots that the Trump administration claims may have been cast by alleged noncitizens.

SEATTLE (AP) — The Trump administration on Monday asked Washington state to set aside any ballots received from more than 400 people it alleges registered to vote without U.S. citizenship, less than two weeks after making a similar demand in California.

Federal prosecutors sent letters to county registrars across California demanding that local officials set aside and verify ballots that the Justice Department said may belong to noncitizens.
