US judge rules states, not Congress, must regulate noncitizen voting
Original: US federal judge finds states, not Congress, must regulate voting by noncitizens
A US federal judge has ruled that states, not Congress, hold the authority to regulate voting by noncitizens. The decision places responsibility for election rules on individual state legislatures, a finding likely to fuel ongoing legal and political battles over voting rights and election administration ahead of upcoming elections.
Why now: The ruling touches on a contentious national debate over immigration and election rules, making it a focal point for political discussion.
