DOJ sues 5 states seeking access to voter rolls

Posted 4:43 PM, Feb 26, 2026


The Justice Department on Thursday filed federal lawsuits against five states, accusing them of failing to provide full voter registration lists. The lawsuits target Utah, Oklahoma, Kentucky, West Virginia and New Jersey.

Attorney General Pamela Bondi said accurate voter rolls are essential to election integrity, an issue President Donald Trump has emphasized since making false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen.

“Accurate, well-maintained voter rolls are a requisite for the election integrity that the American people deserve,” Bondi said in a statement. “This latest series of litigation underscores that this Department of Justice is fulfilling its duty to ensure transparency, voter roll maintenance, and secure elections across the country.”

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon, who leads the Civil Rights Division, said the department will continue to pursue access to records regardless of political affiliation.
