Virginia officials ask Supreme Court to allow state to move forward with removal of 1,600 alleged noncitizens from its voter rolls.

Lower court has ordered the state to restore the registrations of those removed under a governor's order.

Federal law prohibits people from voting in federal elections.

Virginia officials say the district court's order violates Virginia law and "mandates a variety of disruptive measures".
