KCRA 3 News

By Ashley Zavala

With a week left until the midterm election, a court battle is playing out over the state’s voter rolls.

The federal government sued California, alleging that possible noncitizens were registered voters, received mail-in ballots, and in some cases, voted. California is fighting the lawsuit with concerns around the timing of this.

On Tuesday, a week until the election, a federal judge will determine the next steps. On California Politics 360, Ashley Zavala sat down with U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla, who used to be California’s secretary of state.

We are one year away from the completion of the California Capitol Annex project. The taxpayer-funded project has faced significant delays and secrecy. For months, Zavala requested a tour of the construction of the Annex. Project leaders said a tour was not feasible at this time. Zavala looks back at the decade-long history of the Capitol Annex project.

Ahead of the general election in November, we are sitting down with candidates running for major statewide offices. This week, Zavala sits down with a candidate for treasurer, Jennifer Hawks.

With days until the election, the amount of political texts and mailers is rising dramatically. We looked into the reason why.
