Maryland vs DOJ Over Voter Roll

Maryland’s Attorney General is defiantly resisting a federal demand for its entire voter roll, arguing the DOJ’s request is a dangerous overreach that threatens privacy and could enable immigration enforcement. The state contends the list contains sensitive data like Social Security numbers and accuses the federal government of conducting a “fishing expedition” with no legitimate purpose. Maryland’s election officials challenge the DOJ to provide its own list for verification, while federal authorities insist they have the legal right to ensure election integrity by rooting out ineligible voters. With 21 other states already complying, Maryland is pushing back, demanding clarity on the DOJ’s true intentions and insisting Congress—not the Justice Department—should decide whether federal oversight of voter rolls is appropriate.
