One Party Tyranny: Liberal Judges Allow CA’s Corrupt Politicians to Rig Election Against Prop 39’s Bipartisan Voter ID Initiative

Assemblyman Carl DeMaio (R-San Diego) just announced that Liberal Judges have sided with California’s Corrupt Politicians to Try to Rig Election Against Prop 39’s Bipartisan Voter ID Initiative, after AG Rob Bonta issued a new ballot title to Proposition 39.

“Corrupt politicians are showing every voter why we need to enact Prop 39 to implement a bipartisan solution to Voter ID,” DeMaio said.

The Globe reported:

California Attorney General Rob Bonta faces accusations of rigging the ballot language for Proposition 39, the Voter Identification, Citizenship Verification, and Registered Voter List Administration Initiative, just months before the November 2026 election. 

The initiative, which gathered over a million signatures from Democrats, Republicans, and Independents after more than a year of petition circulation under previously approved wording, now faces what opponents call a last-minute rewrite designed to tilt public perception against it. 

To note, California law explicitly states that “in providing the ballot title and summary, the Attorney General is required to give a true and impartial statement of the purpose of the measure in such language that the ballot title and summary is neither an argument, nor likely to create prejudice, for or against the proposed measure. The Attorney General is required to invite and consider public comment in preparing each ballot title and summary.”

Original Approved Language (over a year in circulation):

“ESTABLISHES ADDITIONAL VOTER IDENTIFICATION AND CITIZENSHIP VERIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.”

This version outlined requirements for government-issued ID at the polls (or the last four digits for mail ballots), free voter ID cards, and annual citizenship verification reports by counties. 

New Language Issued by Bonta’s Office:

“PROHIBITS CITIZENS FROM VOTING UNLESS THEY PRESENT GOVERNMENT-ISSUED IDENTIFICATION. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.”
