跟进:司法部就加州选票隔离案上诉第九巡回:称地区法官未按期裁决构成「推定驳回」

美国司法部(DOJ)10月22日向美国联邦第九巡回上诉法院提交上诉通知,就其要求加州隔离逾2万名被指疑似非公民选民邮寄选票的诉讼,请求上诉法院在地区法官裁决之前介入。司法部称,承审法官 David O. Carter 未在司法部要求的10月22日中午前作出裁决,构成「推定驳回」(constructive denial)。据路透社报道,本案听证已排定下周举行,案件追踪记录显示听证时间为10月30日周五上午8时30分。
此案源于司法部10月15日在加州中区联邦地区法院提起的诉讼(United States v. State of California,案号 2:26-cv-12025),被告为加州、州务卿 Shirley N. Weber 与洛杉矶县选民登记官 Dean C. Logan。司法部要求将联邦以公民及移民服务局(USCIS)SAVE 系统比对标记的逾2万名登记选民的邮寄选票先行隔离,核实公民身份后才可计入11月3日中期选举结果,法律依据为《美国法典》第18编第611(a)条。案件10月21日转由 Carter 法官审理。
双方说法此前已经交锋。司法部长 Todd Blanche 在宣布起诉时表示,州政府纵容的选民欺诈在美国不可接受。加州总检察长 Rob Bonta 办公室10月20日提交的反对文件称,司法部的诉求近乎荒谬,充其量是鲁莽的政治作秀,最坏会剥夺数千名加州人的选举权。两方公布的数字口径不同:司法部称名单涉及全州逾2万人;洛杉矶县方面指出,县内名单仅7,035个地址,且含重复与已取消登记,县方抽查约200人中,25.8%的被标记选民档案有美国出生地、多数从未投过票、逾半数登记已取消或不活跃,县助理登记官 Monica Flores 称该名单不可靠。

Follow-Up: DOJ Takes California Ballot Case to the Ninth Circuit, Calling Judge's Inaction a Constructive Denial
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on October 22, asking the appeals court to intervene before the district judge rules in its lawsuit seeking to have California set aside mail ballots from more than 20,000 registered voters flagged as likely noncitizens. The department said Judge David O. Carter's failure to rule by the deadline it had requested, noon on October 22, amounts to a "constructive denial." According to Reuters, a hearing in the case is set for next week, and docket tracking shows it scheduled for Friday, October 30, at 8:30 a.m.
The case stems from the Justice Department's October 15 lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (United States v. State of California, No. 2:26-cv-12025), naming California, Secretary of State Shirley N. Weber and Los Angeles County Registrar Dean C. Logan as defendants. The department wants mail ballots from more than 20,000 registered voters, flagged through comparisons run by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' SAVE system, segregated and counted only after citizenship is verified for the November 3 midterm elections, citing 18 U.S.C. 611(a). The case was reassigned to Judge Carter on October 21.
Both sides have already traded arguments. Attorney General Todd Blanche said when the suit was announced that state-sponsored voter fraud is unacceptable in America. California Attorney General Rob Bonta's office, in its October 20 opposition filing, called the department's request nearly frivolous, saying it was reckless political theater at best and, at worst, would disenfranchise thousands of Californians. The two sides cite different figures: the Justice Department says the list covers more than 20,000 people statewide, while Los Angeles County says its share of the list contains only 7,035 addresses, including duplicates and canceled registrations; a county review of about 200 sampled names found 25.8 percent had a U.S. birthplace on file, most had never voted, and more than half of the registrations were canceled or inactive, and Assistant Registrar Monica Flores called the list unreliable.
