Supreme Court Rejects Trump Administration Bid to Disqualify Votes in California

In depth

The Justice Department of the Trump administration turned to the US Supreme Court in an attempt to block the counting of about 20,000 mail-in votes in California, after an appeals court rejected its request to separate the ballots. According to Haaretz, the administration suspects the votes do not belong to US citizens, while California authorities argue that the list presented is not reliable.

According to Arutz Sheva and Israel Hayom, the Supreme Court rejected the request overnight and left the vote count in place, despite the administration's claims regarding the eligibility of some of the voters to take part in the elections.
