Judge rejects DOJ's push to force California to set aside ballots

What the coverage shows

All four outlets center on the judge rejecting the Justice Department’s effort to separate or halt counting of about 20,000 California mail ballots tied to alleged noncitizens. NBC, CBS and Fox differ mostly in wording, while the New York Times alone adds that the judge said no immediate action was necessary and frames the ruling as another setback for the administration. Fox uniquely casts the ruling as blocking the department from barring California’s count.
