Judge orders Arizona to release names of voters affected by citizenship proof glitch
A judge in Arizona has ordered the release of names of voters who may not have provided proof of citizenship due to a computer glitch. This affects about 218,000 registered voters, according to a conservative group that filed the lawsuit. The order follows a public records request made by America First Legal after the Arizona Secretary of State's office initially declined to release the information. The office expressed concerns about potential threats to those individuals if their names were disclosed. Arizona is a key battleground state in the upcoming U.S. elections, with polls showing a close race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. Noncitizen voting is illegal, but claims of widespread noncitizen registration have been made.
