Trump administration asks Supreme Court to set aside 20,000 disputed California ballots
On Monday, the eve of the US midterm elections, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to temporarily block California from counting mail-in ballots from more than 20,000 registered voters who federal officials allege are probably non-US citizens.
The Hill
What the coverage shows
NPR and CNBC both frame the story as the Justice Department asking the Supreme Court to step in on a California ballot dispute. NPR foregrounds the administration’s bid to have ballots set aside and notes the lower courts had rejected that request, while CNBC’s headline centers the mail-in ballot appeal and its extract uniquely adds that the California filing comes alongside an Alaska election lawsuit appeal.
