The Biden administration has advised the Supreme Court to maintain a hold on parts of an Arizona proof-of-citizenship voter law for the upcoming election. This move comes amidst a legal battle over election rules in the battleground state, which has become a contentious issue in the lead-up to the 2024 campaign season.
In a court filing, US Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar argued that intervening at this stage could disrupt the orderly administration of the election and potentially disenfranchise thousands of voters who have already registered using the federal form. Arizona's Democratic state officials echoed this sentiment, stating that court intervention at this juncture would be destabilizing.
