TL;DR
California passed a law to shield its elections from federal meddling, prohibiting access to voter rolls or election technology without a court order and restricting federal agents from disrupting election workers, with penalties for removing ballots. The measure comes as the state conducts a high‑stakes open primary and amid ongoing national debates about election administration and redistricting.
