The California Attorney General’s Office on Thursday, Feb. 13, asked an appeals court to move quickly and decide to have Huntington Beach’s voter ID law overturned, warning that voters will suffer if the case isn’t resolved before next year’s elections.

A lower court dismissed the state's suit against Huntington Beach over its new voter ID law, which is set to go into effect in 2026. The attorney general's office says time is of the essence in getting the case resolved.

Attorney General Rob Bonta asked appellate court justices Thursday to speed up their challenge to Huntington Beach’s new voter identification requirement, slated to go into effect in 2026. Last month the Attorney General’s office appealed a lower court dismissal of a lawsuit against the city over the voter ID requirement.

The packed agenda for Tuesday night's meeting also includes a revised "MAGA" library plaque and a new city attorney.

In the plaque’s center, the words “Magical.” “Alluring,” “Galvanizing,” and “Adventurous” are stacked on top of each other to spell out the acronym “MAGA.”

KTLA-TV reported that the Huntington Beach Public Library plans to install a $7,000 bronze plaque that in part reads “Magical, Alluring, Galvanizing, Adventurous” as part of celebrations to mark the library’s 50th anniversary.
