California Trial Court Dismisses State of California’s Lawsuit to Void Huntington Beach Ordinance That Authorizes City Council to Require Voter ID

On September 15, an Orange County Superior Court dismissed a lawsuit filed by the state against the city of Huntington Beach. The city’s voters passed a local ballot measure that authorizes the city council to pass an ordinance requiring voters to show photo ID to vote in city elections. The court indicated the lawsuit is premature, because the city council has not yet actually passed such a proposed rule.

The case is People of California v City of Huntington Beach, Orange County, 30-2024-1393606. Here is the ruling, which is very short. Thanks to Justin Levitt for the link. California’s Attorney General plans to appeal.

Bob Casey and Republican David McCormick, ordering counties not to count mail-in ballots that lack a correct handwritten date on the return envelope.

    The order is a win for McCormick and a loss for Casey as the campaigns prepare for a statewide recount and press counties for favorable ballot-counting decisions.
