A federal judge in Michigan, appointed by Trump, has blocked the Trump-era Justice Department’s attempt to access the state’s voter rolls, ruling that Michigan was within its rights to refuse sharing personal voter information. Judge Hala Jarbou dismissed the DOJ’s claims that such data was necessary to prevent ineligible voting and voter fraud, aligning with similar rulings in Oregon and California that rejected efforts to create a national voter database. These decisions reflect increasing judicial resistance to the DOJ’s efforts to gather detailed voter data ahead of the upcoming midterms, signaling legal hurdles for the administration’s broader push to compile comprehensive voter information.

Texas has handed over its voter roll, covering 18.4 million registered voters, to the Justice Department, complying with federal demands amid ongoing legal battles. The data includes sensitive info like DOB, driver’s license, and last four SSN digits, raising privacy concerns.
