On March 13, 2025, California Congressman Issa sued the Secretary of State of California in federal court to prevent the state from counting mail ballots that were cast by Election Day and received within the seven days following Election Day. The suit tries to make use of a centuries old federal law that sets Election Day for congressional and presidential elections on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in even years. The federal law does not speak to mail ballot receipt.

Representing the League of Women Voters of California, who played an important role in passing the challenged law and has thousands of members across the state who rely on mail ballots, the ºìÐÓÊÓƵ, ºìÐÓÊÓƵ of Northern California, ºìÐÓÊÓƵ of Southern California, and ºìÐÓÊÓƵ of San Diego and Imperial Counties, have intervened in the case.
