The Republican Party of Arizona, national Republicans, and Arizona GOP lawmakers are seeking an emergency order to block some voters who register with a federal voter registration form from voting in this year’s presidential race.

The groups believe U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton was incorrect in her ruling that federal law allows people without proof of citizenship to cast a ballot in the presidential race. Bolton ruled that federal voters could vote by mail and cast early ballots.
