Judges block Trump push for Michigan voter info, setting up possible Supreme Court fight

A federal appeals court blocked the Department of Justice from accessing sensitive Michigan voter data, a move seen as a setback for President Donald Trump's efforts to obtain voter information from 30 states. The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that Michigan's voter registration database is not subject to the Civil Rights Act's provisions, citing potential conflicts with other federal laws like the National Voter Registration Act and Help America Vote Act. The decision could lead to a Supreme Court battle over state voter rolls ahead of the November midterm elections.
