Kobach Loses Ruling In Battle Over Provisional Voter Names
In a federal ruling, U S District Judge J Thomas Marten rejected Kris Kobach's bid to block Democratic Rep Ann Mah from contacting voters who cast uncounted provisional ballots in her Topeka district. Mah, trailing by 44 votes, sought to help voters correct provisional ballots while Kobach argued for privacy protections. The decision allows release of 131 provisional voter names and keeps pressure on future elections over voter privacy and ballot integrity.
