Over 800,000 Inactive Voters on the Rolls in California

The layers and layers of corruption in the Golden State make it difficult to see how things could get better. This lawsuit starts in Orange County: Orange County Supervisor Don Wagner, the Republican candidate for secretary of state, joined the American Independent Party of California in suing incumbent Secretary of State Shirley Weber, alleging that 873,092 inactive voter registrations are still on the rolls. The complaint, filed through conservative voting watchdog organization Judicial Watch, claimed the Democrat Weber is in violation of federal law that requires most inactive voter registrations to be removed after two general federal elections. Instead, more than 800,000 registrations have remained inactive and on the rolls for at least three elections — with 151,202 on the rolls after at least four consecutive elections, the suit claims. The lawsuit also alleges that the state takes no effective action to require counties to fix the issue, citing admissions by California officials (New York Post). Judicial Watch: “Judicial Watch’s federal lawsuit confirms California has a dirty voting rolls crisis – with thousands of old names on the rolls going back at least 10 years,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Dirty voting rolls can mean dirty elections. And California and its counties must take immediate steps to clean the over 870,000 dirty names on the voting lists” (Judicial Watch).

California is slowly counting the votes in its closely watched June 2 gubernatorial contest, with results showing Republican Steve Hilton and Democrat Xavier Becerra at the top of the heap. But we know how these things roll.

With roughly half of the votes counted by 2 am ET on June 3, Hilton, a former Fox News host endorsed by Trump, stood in first with about 27%, followed by Becerra, a former Biden administration official, holding roughly 26%.

Bombshell lawsuit exposes 873,000 ‘ghost’ voters in California

By Titus Wu, NY Post,June 2, 2026:

As voters hit the polls Tuesday to make their picks in this year’s primary races, a fresh lawsuit against California’s secretary of state is calling into question whether hundreds of thousands of unqualified voters are still eligible to head to the ballot box.

Orange County Supervisor Don Wagner, the Republican candidate for secretary of state, joined the American Independent Party of California in suing incumbent Secretary of State Shirley Weber, alleging that 873,092 inactive voter registrations are still on the rolls.

The complaint, filed through conservative voting watchdog organization Judicial Watch, claimed the Democrat Weber is in violation of federal law that requires most inactive voter registrations to be removed after two general federal elections.

Instead, more than 800,000 registrations have remained inactive and on the rolls for at least three elections — with 151,202 on the rolls after at least four consecutive elections, the suit claims.

The lawsuit also alleges that the state takes no effective action to require counties to fix the issue, citing admissions by California officials.
