FRESNO COUNTY ELECTIONS OFFICE DRAWS SCRUTINY FROM FRESNO COUNCIL PRESIDENT

Fresno City Council President Mike Karbassi is alleging the U.S. Department of Justice is targeting Fresno County after the announcement it would deploy election monitors to the upcoming election.

Karbassi held a press conference in front of Fresno City Hall on Tuesday morning to discuss DOJ election monitors to Fresno County to observe the Nov. 4 election, as well as other issues county voters are facing as voting continues.

Last Friday, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi’s announced the DOJ would monitor polls in six jurisdiction, including Fresno. Monitoring is set for the counties of Kern, Riverside, Orange, Los Angles, and Passaic County in New Jersey.

Karbassi said that out of over 3,100 counties across the nation, the six counties have been targeted due to concerns about management of local elections.
