"Since when is a STATE election in a federal judge's jurisdiction?"

Its because of 3 counties (Monterey and couple others) have had a poor minority voter turn out in the past. These 3 are on some sort of federal guidance/monitoring/review to ensure it doesn't happen again.

One of the reasons they have "poor voter turnout" is due to the fact that a significant number of the "residents" are not in fact citizens, nor are they in the country with the leave of the citizenry. So, uh, they aren't supposed to be voting in the first place.

Little detail that the original consent agreement ignored.
