The DOJ sent a list of names of possible non-citizens who the DOJ believes are registered to vote, but the LA County Registrar, Dean Logan won’t open it. He claims, weakly, that he doesn’t feel the drive on which the names were delivered is ‘secure’. He also seems to contend that the information came too late–though it would seem there is no better time to get people who shouldn’t vote, off the rolls, and pronto. Looks like stonewalling, pure and simple.
Here is the letter from the DOJ to The Registrar:
Here is the response from Logan to the DOJ.
Statement from Dean Logan Regarding U.S. Department of Justice Correspondence
LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk (RR/CC) Dean C. Logan issued the following statement regarding correspondence received from the U.S. Department of Justice concerning voter eligibility and citizenship:
“Our office received correspondence and information from the U.S. Department of Justice the afternoon of October 13, 2026 (21 days prior to Election Day) concerning assertions related to voter eligibility and citizenship. We are reviewing the information in coordination with the California Secretary of State and Attorney General to determine the next appropriate steps.
The letter included a USB drive purportedly containing the referenced records, along with a handwritten note providing a password. We have not accessed the drive because doing so would conflict with established data privacy and information security protocols. We do not consider the device a secure medium. Additionally, the letter does not specify the number of individuals involved or describe the information contained in the records.
Maintaining accurate voter registration records is a fundamental responsibility of our office. Federal and state laws are clear on how voter eligibility is established – and any action to remove a voter from eligibility must be based on verifiable information, not assertions of unconfirmed data matching.
With the 2026 General Election underway, we remain focused on administering a safe, secure, accurate, and transparent election. We will continue following established legal requirements and verification procedures while protecting the rights of every eligible voter.”
A copy of the October 13, 2026, letter from the U.S. Department of Justice, along with the accompanying handwritten note, is available below (above).
