California courts blocked Huntington Beach's voter ID Measure A; residents cannot be forced to show ID and the state Supreme Court declined review.

Voter ID laws do not prevent significant voter fraud and primarily waste time while risking voter suppression.

Huntington Beach cannot require residents to present identification to vote in local elections because voter ID is a matter of statewide concern under California law.

Donald Trump sought to influence elections abroad and in the U.S., opposing mail-in and early voting while promoting voter ID and same-day in-person paper ballots.

Republicans are pursuing a Voter ID initiative requiring government-issued ID for in-person voting and verified ID numbers for mail ballots, targeting the 2026 ballot.
