With October drawing to a close and the nation approaching its second midterm election during Donald Trump’s presidency, Attorney General Todd Blanche has personally joined four relatively small voter-fraud prosecutions in Nevada, according to federal court records.
Between Oct. 23 and Oct. 29, Jullie Ann Sumalinog Moore, Khalida Safi, Moneir Elzobier Ali Yousif and Mlebinge Riziki Ramadhani were each charged with one misdemeanor count of voting as an alien under 18 U.S.C. §611, according to federal court filings.
The four cases involve separate allegations and individual violations. They were first reported by All Rise News Editor-in-Chief Adam Klasfeld.
In every case, however, the charging document carries an unusual signature: the name at the top belongs to Blanche, who previously served as Trump’s personal attorney.

Blanche’s appearance on the filings may reflect the administration’s still-evolving approach to leading Justice Department positions, including its reported willingness to leave some posts unfilled rather than pursue confirmation.
Nevada, though, may also represent an exceptional situation.
The cases emerged shortly after the Trump administration suffered a setback over broader claims of voter fraud in the state.
Earlier this year, the Department of Homeland Security said Nevada’s voter rolls included roughly 16,000 noncitizens. Officials later reduced that figure to 185 alleged noncitizens during the summer. Nevada authorities subsequently concluded that all 185 were, in fact, citizens.
