Kamala won by 16,000 votes
San Luis Obispo County provided records showing the county voter rolls had 24,000 ineligible voters.
What’s Available in the Public Record
1. Judicial Watch Lawsuit & Voter Roll Maintenance
A Judicial Watch lawsuit alleges that California—and SLO County in particular—has minimally complied with federal requirements under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA). Specifically, between November 2020 and November 2022, San Luis Obispo County removed just 5 ineligible voters, a figure far lower than expected given population turnover. thecamarilloacorn.com
2. Historical Administrative Issues & Voter Roll Irregularities
Opinion pieces and local commentary have highlighted issues such as:
Undeliverable ballots sent to voters who moved or died
Ballots sent to empty lots or multifamily units
Some ballots received by incarcerated individuals or in incorrect district addresses Cal Coast News
These reflect known administrative challenges—but again, there’s no record of 24,000 ineligible registrations identified or confirmed.
