Alabama Secretary of State's office posts news release required by court order [View all]
The Alabama Secretary of State’s office Friday sent a news release that a plan to “inactivate” people the office suspected of not being U.S. citizens had been held up by a court order.
The brief news release, required under a limited preliminary injunction against Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen’s efforts, contained links to the earlier news release that was superseded by court order, as well as a link to the federal court order and links to remedial mailers.
Manasco on Wednesday wrote that Allen’s attempts “blew the deadline” under the National Voter Registration Act, which requires election law changes to be made no later than 90 days before an election. Allen’s order came on the 84th day before the election. The judge also noted that the secretary of state’s office had acknowledged that some citizens had been caught in the process.
The preliminary injunction included other remedies, such as providing remedial mailers to send to some possibly eligible voters. The injunction expires the day after the general election.
