Federal judge dismisses Trump administration attempt to access Michigan voter rolls [View all]
Judge Hala Jarbou, an appointee of President Donald Trump, has ruled that there is no federal law requiring states to turn over voter registration lists to the federal government, dismissing a case brought against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.
In an opinion released Tuesday out of the federal district court in the Western District of Michigan, Jarbou wrote that the three federal statutes in question —the Help America Vote Act, the National Voter Registration Act and the Civil Rights Act of 1960 — “do not allow the United States to obtain the records at issue in this case.”
