NYT: Why Is the Trump Administration Demanding Minnesota’s Voter Rolls?

The Department of Justice has sued 24 states, with only 11 partly Republican-led states complying, amid concerns over privacy and potential misuse of voter data.

  • The Trump Administration, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, demands Minnesota to turn over its voter rolls to ensure compliance with federal law regarding voter registration practices.
  • The Department of Justice argues that federal law allows oversight of voter registrations to ensure they are accurate and fair, according to Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon.
  • Tensions have escalated in Minneapolis after fatal shootings involving federal immigration officers, as reported by local leaders.
  • A federal court ruling dismissed the Trump Administration's case against Oregon, which sought access to voter rolls, indicating the administration's legal challenges regarding voter data are ongoing.
