flag Washington state passes law limiting voter registration challenges to reduce false claims and boost election integrity.

flag Washington state’s House passed HB 1916, tightening voter registration challenge rules to curb baseless claims. flag The bill requires challenges to be based on personal knowledge, limited to same-county voters, and submitted via a state form with ink signatures and certified mail to both addresses. flag False claims may lead to criminal penalties. flag County auditors can reject unfounded challenges, and hearings require probable cause. flag The measure, backed by Democrats and some Republicans, aims to prevent voter intimidation and improve election integrity, responding to concerns over hundreds of unsubstantiated challenges filed by groups like the Washington Voter Research Project. flag It passed 58-38 after stalling in 2025 due to partisan amendments.
