A federal appeals court is rejecting Virginia's challenge to an order halting the state's effort to remove non-citizens from its voter rolls. The Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond denied the state's appeal yesterday, setting up a possible emergency appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. A federal judge told the state on Friday to stop removing voters and restore the registration of about 16-hundred voters who had already been removed. Governor Youngkin says the people removed from the rolls self-identified as non-citizens. The state was sued by the U.S. Department of Justice and several voting and immigration groups who claim Virginia violated federal law by purging voter rolls within 90 days of the election.
