Governor Katie Hobbs on Friday appointed one Democratic and one Republican official to lead a bipartisan investigation into the Arizona Department of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Division after her administration confirmed it lacks confirmation of citizenship for more than 200,000 registered voters earlier this month.

Governor Glenn Youngkin and Attorney General Jason Miyares have vowed Virginia will fight the lawsuit launched by the Biden-Harris Department of Justice (DOJ) over the commonwealth’s recent effort to remove non-citizens from its voter rolls, with both noting it was filed less than one month before Election Day.

The DOJ on Friday launched litigation against Virginia after the commonwealth removed non-citizens from its voter rolls, with the federal government alleging the commonwealth violated the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, which it argued prohibits canceling voter registrations within 90 days of an election, even if those voters were illegally registered.

It’s almost as if he thinks it somehow works to his advantage.
