Corrections and updates

Record changes, newest first

Corrections and updates entered by the VoteFiles desk, each linked to the official record behind it, plus automatic entries whenever a published election deadline is changed, withdrawn or put on hold after we check its source. An automatic entry never states a new date; the state page shows the current verified date, if there is one.

How to read this page

A correction is not a silent rewrite

Material correction

The public question, the topic page, which governments we checked, the key official records, or another important fact changed. It appears in the list below.

Routine reverification

Sources were checked again and nothing important changed. The topic page shows its new check date, but we do not add a correction to this page for it.

Private work stays private

Internal notes, unfinished drafts, search leads, and raw research are never published here. This page shows only the public description of the change and when it was checked.

    Official records in this revision

    Federal · Sep 4, 2026Prior motions denied as moot; new briefing schedule orderedU.S. District Court for D.C. via RECAP · 1:26-cv-00477-ACR, September 4

    Because an amended complaint is forthcoming, the court denies ECF 8 (stay/preliminary injunction), ECF 51 (discovery) and ECF 34 (dismissal) as moot, and requires a joint briefing schedule by September 15. This order does not decide the merits of tree removal.

    Federal · Sep 3, 2026Plaintiffs report additional site workPlaintiffs’ filing in D.D.C. via RECAP · 1:26-cv-00477-ACR, ECF 69

    Plaintiffs allege accelerated activity, citing reports and declarations about tree removal, surveying and equipment. The filing separately identifies one cherry-tree allegation; it does not establish a total cherry-tree count. It quotes defense counsel describing maintenance. Allegations and the quoted response are not court findings.
