Harmeet Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, says the lawsuits she is bringing against both red and blue states over voter list maintenance will help clean voter rolls for the 2026 midterm elections.
With the congressional elections coming up next year, the DOJ said it is trying to ensure that only eligible voters are on states’ voter rolls. While some states have voluntarily complied with the DOJ’s requests for voter registration data or are cleaning the voter rolls themselves, others are refusing to hand over the information, citing privacy concerns.
