States demand answers on shared voter data | JQJO

Ten state election chiefs sent a letter Tuesday pressing Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem for clarity on federal use of private voter data. Citing reports that the Justice Department shared voter files with Homeland Security, they asked whether the agencies misled officials and demanded answers on any sharing or receipt of voter information. The letter notes DOJ is compiling its largest set of voter roll data, tied to unsubstantiated claims by President Trump and allies, after states rebuffed requests and DOJ sued at least eight. It also cites DHS denials from official Heather Honey.
