SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Two California Republican state lawmakers launched a campaign Wednesday to place a measure on the 2026 ballot that would require voter identification and proof of citizenship at the polls.
The proposal would require the state to verify proof of citizenship when a person registers to vote, and voters would have to provide identifications at the polls. Those who vote through mail-in ballots would have to give the last four digits of a government-issued ID such as a Social Security number.

The Republican lawmakers said the measure would help restore trust in elections where they said people have complained about outdated voter rolls and an inadequate signature review process, with some also casting doubt on election results.

California is among 14 states and the District of Columbia that do not require voters to show some form of identification at the polls or to register to voter.

Somewhere, there is a flatulating, white boy hating lesbo, “Dipstick Judge” wannabe walking the streets of Kingston who is ready to impress her communist streetwalker friends with her “temporary for now” injunction.
I wish these poor b*stards luck, but CA is YEARS away from sanity.
They could have done this 30 years ago.
Zero chance now
This makes so much sense it hasn’t got a chance in CA.
Why bother since CA counts illegal votes.
An under the legislative radar solution is implemented in Texas and several other states - requiring notarized proof USA citizenship (birth certificate, etc) when applying or renewing your drivers license. No proof? No license ... see the nice man in the INS uniform over there. Your next bunk may be in Alligator Alcatraz.
This should have been done 20 years ago.
This phrase is a ripe oxymoron. ANY proposal submitted my the super minority Republicans is:
1. Laughed at by the Democrat/Communist super majority.
2. Thrown immediately down the crapper, never to be seen again.
I wouldn't bet on that. The "gimmedats" in Oakland, Richmond, Pittsburg, and LA are tired of illegals hogging their cut of the public weal.
I predict the CA voters will vote for it...then a court will strike it down. Just like with the gay marriage vote CA did when the Californians voted against gay marriage.
