Senator Thom Tillis, a Republican from North Carolina, accused California of being "guilty" of ballot harvesting, stating the state has a system vulnerable to abuse, according to The Hill.

The accusation came during an interview on "Face the Nation" with host Margaret Brennan, who inquired about the ongoing legal dispute between the Department of Justice and California.

The DOJ is engaged in a legal battle with California concerning the presence of potential noncitizens on voter rolls, which is part of the broader discussion on election integrity raised by Tillis.

Tillis's comments highlight concerns from some Republicans about election processes in states like California, while the DOJ continues its efforts to address voter eligibility issues.
