The letter asks DOJ to encourage "a thorough investigation of any related unlawful conduct" and discusses Los Angeles voter-registration payments and address issues.

The full letter is addressed to DOJ officials and explicitly requests a thorough accounting/investigation while citing the alleged paid registrations, incorrect addresses, and the Los Angeles mayoral-primary context.

DOJ announced a California woman was charged with paying people, including homeless people on Skid Row, to register to vote.

This DOJ release corroborates the official prosecution and factual predicate that Scott cited in his June 12 letter, including payment for voter registration and registration-address concerns.

The promise was to call on DOJ to investigate specified alleged California election-conduct issues, not to secure a completed DOJ investigation or prosecution. Evidence shows Scott, while serving as U.S. Senator, sent a June 12, 2026 letter to DOJ officials asking for a thorough investigation/accounting and naming the same issues: voter-registration payments, incorrect addresses, and Los Angeles mayoral-primary irregularities. That satisfies the promised oversight action during the same federal term.
