DOJ issues grand jury subpoenas to election officials in California

The Department of Justice on Thursday issued grand jury subpoenas to local election officials in California as part of its criminal investigation into the state’s voter rolls, multiple sources familiar with the matter told ABC News. The move escalates the Trump administration’s clash with states over how elections are run just days before the midterm elections.

The subpoenas come as part of the administration’s effort to prove its claims that California has thousands of non-citizens on its voter rolls.
