Summary
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to seize private voter data from New Jersey — including addresses, driver’s licenses, birth dates, and partial SSNs — ruling that federal law doesn’t compel the state to hand over its digital voter system. The judge dismissed the case with prejudice, shutting the door on a refile, though the DOJ plans to appeal. This isn’t the first time such requests have been denied — at least 17 courts have already rejected similar efforts.
