Judge limits DHS noncitizen-voter field operations in nine states

From the LeftNPR: Federal judge restricts DHS field operations looking for noncitizen voters
The order's reasoning, the USCIS whistleblower, DHS's and a USCIS official's responses and the plaintiffs' lawyer all quoted; one unattributed claim on how rare noncitizen voting is
Grade: B (82/100). Uses an unnamed source or unsourced number.
CenterNewsNation: DHS can't question voters about citizenship before election day: Judge
Wide context from DOJ, DHS, election expert David Becker and a former HSI agent; misstates whom the order covers and leaves out that it is on hold until Friday
Grade: F (40/100). Gets a fact wrong and uses an unnamed source or unsourced number.
From the RightFox News: Biden-appointed judge blocks voter-fraud probes in battleground states just days before midterms
Quotes the order, the government's argument and DHS; notes noncitizen voting is rare and the stay until Friday; foregrounds the judge's birthplace and ACLU past and calls the plaintiffs activists
Grade: C (76/100). Uses loaded words.
