RNC Sues New Jersey Election Officials Over Withheld Voter Roll Records
The committee says New Jersey officials withheld records on voter-roll maintenance and noncitizen registrations after thousands were added in error, according to the lawsuit.
The Republican National Committee and New Jersey Republican leaders sued the state’s top election official and authorities in five counties over allegedly withheld voter-roll maintenance records.
The lawsuit followed the RNC’s reported discovery of hundreds of noncitizens on New Jersey voter registries and Governor Mikie Sherrill’s acknowledgment that more than 6,600 noncitizens were added.
The RNC said the records could show how ineligible registrations occurred and whether those voters were removed; officials had provided some documents but allegedly withheld others.
The RNC said the case was part of a nationwide election-integrity effort that had requested voter-roll records from 48 states.
