加州总检察长牵头反对国防部改海外选民表格：删去「从未在美国居住」勾选框
加州总检察长 Rob Bonta 11月10日宣布，他共同牵头一个多州联盟，反对美国国防部对《联邦明信片申请表》（Federal Post Card Application）的一项修改，该表是海外选民登记投票与申请缺席选票所用的表格。
Bonta 办公室说，今年8月，特朗普政府调整该表，悄然删去了「我是居住在国外的美国公民，从未在美国居住过」的勾选框，令在国外出生、至今仍居国外的美国公民再无办法在表上表明投票资格，投票能力面临风险。联盟在意见中称该修改违法、会剥夺公民投票权并损害各州。美国宪法把决定联邦与州选举资格的权力交给各州，现已有37个州与哥伦比亚特区允许从未在美居住的美国公民投票，例如加州允许在国外出生、从未在美居住的公民在其父母或法定监护人最后居住地为加州时以缺席票投票。
Bonta 表示，特朗普政府一再试图干预选举、损害基本投票权，他与同行总检察长每次都挺身挑战，这次的新障碍同样违法。

California Attorney General Co-Leads Opposition to Defense Department Change Making Voting Harder for Some Citizens Living Abroad
California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced on November 10 that he co-led a multistate coalition opposing a U.S. Department of Defense change to the Federal Post Card Application, the form overseas voters use to register to vote and request an absentee ballot.
In August 2026, the Trump Administration adjusted the form and quietly removed a checkbox stating, "I am a U.S. citizen living outside the country, I have never lived in the United States," leaving citizens born and still living abroad no way to indicate their eligibility, the coalition argued in opposing the revised form, calling the change unlawful and disenfranchising. The U.S. Constitution assigns states the role of determining eligibility for federal and state elections; 37 states and the District of Columbia allow citizens who have never lived in the country to vote, and California lets citizens born abroad who have never lived in the United States vote by absentee ballot if a parent or legal guardian was last a California resident.
Bonta said the Trump Administration has repeatedly attempted to interfere in elections and undermine the fundamental right to vote, and that he and his fellow attorneys general have challenged those efforts at every turn.
