Alaska Sued Over Voter Roll Data Share With DOJ
Voting-rights groups have filed a lawsuit against Alaska officials, alleging that the state’s decision to share unredacted voter rolls with the Justice Department violates residents’ constitutional privacy and voting rights. This action is part of a broader trend of Republican-led states complying with the Trump administration’s requests for voter data, which advocates fear could lead to eligible voters being removed from rolls and disenfranchised in future elections. The lawsuit seeks to declare Alaska’s agreement with the DOJ unlawful and compel the destruction of the shared data.
