HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.—Attorney General Rob Bonta and Secretary of State Shirley Weber announced Thursday they will appeal the dismissal of a lawsuit challenging Huntington Beach’s voter identification requirement, which is expected to take effect two years from now.

The lawsuit challenging Measure A, which would require identification from voters for municipal elections, was tossed out last month with a ruling that it wasn’t “ripe for adjudication” and doesn’t represent a conflict with state law.
