Judges block Trump push for Michigan voter info, setting up possible Supreme Court fight
A federal appeals court ruled that the Department of Justice cannot access sensitive voter data from Michigan, blocking President Trump's effort to obtain voter rolls for a noncitizen voter investigation. The 2-1 decision in the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals could lead to a Supreme Court battle, as the court found the Civil Rights Act does not require states to provide such data, citing conflicts with other federal election laws.
