Overview

• A coalition of immigrant-rights groups and the League of Women Voters has filed a lawsuit against Virginia officials, alleging an illegal voter roll purge.
• The lawsuit argues that Governor Youngkin's executive order for daily updates to voter rolls violates the 90-day quiet period mandated by federal law.
• Plaintiffs claim the use of Department of Motor Vehicles data is flawed, potentially disenfranchising naturalized citizens misclassified as noncitizens.
• Virginia officials defend the process, asserting it complies with state law and targets only those who self-identify as noncitizens.
• The lawsuit seeks to halt the purge program and restore wrongfully removed voters, citing violations of the National Voter Registration Act.
