Justice Department charges more than two dozen foreign nationals in California voting case

The Justice Department said it charged more than two dozen lawful permanent residents, who are not U.S. citizens, in a California operation it called Operation Protect the Vote. The allegations include fraudulent voter registrations and false statements on naturalization applications. The action comes amid a federal dispute with California over the administration's claims about suspected noncitizen voters; California officials have said the federal government has not substantiated those assertions.
