Appeals court blocks DOJ bid over disputed California ballots
Original: Appeals court rejects Justice Department request for California to set aside disputed ballots

The ruling keeps the disputed ballots in place for now. The decision is drawing attention amid ongoing national disputes over election administration and ballot counting procedures.
