VOTER ID LAW IN CALIFORNIA

Three interesting things have happened recently with regards to voter identification requirements in the formerly great state of California.

Three days ago an Orange County Judge ruled against the CA attorney general in his attempt to invalidate the law requiring voter ID in Huntington Beach, CA.  The city is a charter city as opposed to a general law city and their city charter gives them much more authority in that arena than the liberal weenies in Sacramento like.  The state has already announced they will appeal.  This is the second ruling that supported the city in this matter.

Two days ago the legislative proposals in the CA legislature to accomplish this goal on a state level died in committee, which was expected.

Yesterday a ballot initiative was announced that would give the voters the say in this issue.  The supporters believe they can likely get the question on the 2026 ballot.  My own opinion, for what that may be worth to you, is that it will pass if they can actually get it on the ballot.  That costs money. Also the state level political structure will fight it every inch of the way as it interferes with the ability of illegal aliens to vote.
