A federal judge on Friday blocked Virginia from purging its voter rolls of alleged noncitizens and ordered the state to reinstate more than 1,600 people who had already been bounced from those lists. Judge Patricia Giles in her ruling agreed with arguments by the U.S. Department of Justice, which said that the purge ordered by Gov. Federal law bars states from systematically removing people from voter rolls within 90 days of an election. The DOJ said in a court filing that 43 people in Prince William County who had been removed from voter rolls were likely U.S. citizens, and lawyers earlier this week confirmed that 18 American citizens were removed from voter rolls. Giles said it was "not happenstance" that Youngkin had issued his executive order to purge the voter rolls exactly 90 days before Election Day.

Currently, the jobless in North Carolina can only receive up to 12 weeks of state unemployment benefits, among the skimpiest in the nation. (Applicants must first exhaust their state unemployment benefits.) Plus, disaster jobless benefits are available to many types of workers who don’t qualify for state unemployment insurance, such as gig workers, farmers and the self-employed. Still, it can be difficult for the newly jobless to secure either state or disaster unemployment benefits, particularly those whose homes and businesses have been heavily damaged or destroyed by storms.

As Election Day approaches, the campaigns are putting significant time and attention toward courting Black men, seen as a crucial — and potentially movable — voting bloc in a tight presidential race. However, that number drops to 68% for Black men under 50, compared to 21% who support Trump. “It’s very important to not operate from the assumption that Black men are in anybody’s pocket,” she said during an interview with the National Association of Black Journalists in September. For Trump’s part, efforts to reach Black men voters through campaign surrogates or Trump himself have lessened in recent months. Bartell also pointed to Kevin Cooper, a Black man on death row for killing a white family, as well as marijuana convictions of Black men.

Hurricane Helene battered rural mountain towns in North Carolina, a key voting bloc for Trump. AdvertisementEarly voting began in North Carolina on October 17, and state election officials said in-person turnout topped a previous record set in 2020. He won North Carolina by less than 75,000 votes in the 2020 presidential race, with strong support in areas outside urban centers. Allison Joyce / AFPThe Democrats aim to flip historically red North Carolina, seeing a path in the rapidly growing suburban areas like Charlotte, Raleigh-Durham, and Fayetteville. North Carolina election officials made emergency changes to expand voting access for residents recovering from the storm.

Her decision to appear on The Shade Room and other less traditional platforms has left many scratching their heads. But it’s a strategy to reach young, Black voters who are increasingly turning to social media for news. Fifty-two percent of polled adults under 30 said they have a lot or some trust in information that comes from social media. That is most likely what led Harris to The Shade Room, which has more than 29 million followers on Instagram and is known for saucy celebrity gossip and salacious headlines. The Shade Room did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

"Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story" adapts the murder trial of Lyle Menendez and Erik Menendez. AdvertisementLeslie Grossman said she purposely did not contact Judalon Smyth after being cast to play her in Netflix's "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story." "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story," which follows the 1990s trials of Lyle Menendez and Erik Menendez for the murder of their parents, saw early success too, topping Netflix's top 10 charts for two weeks. Judalon Smyth, played above by Leslie Grossman, was a witness in the Menendez brother's first trial. Cooper Koch, who played Erik Menendez in "Monsters," seems to be the only cast member to meet the real-life subjects of the show.

"The question is whether German car makers manage to adjust their product portfolios, change their organizations, and ramp up productivity quickly enough to preserve the status and relevance they had for decades." Brand loyaltyNot everyone is as concerned about the outlook for Germany's car industry. Sigrid de Vries, director general of the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), a car lobby group, said she finds it "really hard to believe" that Germany's auto sector is struggling to adapt to the electrification.
