Supreme Court declines Kobach appeal on citizenship proof
The court refused to hear Kansas Secretary of State Kobach's bid to require a revised federal voter registration form that complies with state citizenship proof rules. The ruling leaves the 10th Circuit decision intact, allowing federal registrations in Kansas without state-level proof for federal elections, while state and local voting remains unsettled. A separate state case by the ACLU and League of Women Voters challenges Kobach's policy in Shawnee County District Court.
