Virginia filed for an emergency stay in the US Supreme Court after a Biden-appointed judge mandated the state reinstate over 1,600 noncitizens removed from the voter rolls.
On Friday U.S. District Judge Patricia Tolliver Giles, a Biden appointee raised serious concerns about election integrity and the potential for voter fraud in the Commonwealth after she ordered Virginia to reinstate over 1,600 noncitizens to the state’s voter rolls 11 days before Election Day.
Chief Justice Roberts asked for a response by 3 pm Tuesday.
The Justice Department earlier this month announced it is suing the state of Virginia for removing non-citizens from its voter rolls.
