  • The Justice Department has filed more lawsuits against mostly democratic-led states in an attempt to access sensitive data about registered voters.

  • Here's NPR's Hansi Lo Wang reporting.

  • For months,

  • the Justice Department has been demanding certain states turn over complete copies of their voter registration lists,

  • including any driver's license numbers and parts of voter social security numbers.

  • In court filings,

  • the DOJ says it wants this personal information to check

  • if states are following federal law and keeping accurate voter rolls.

  • But most states have refused, citing privacy restrictions.

  • Now, the Justice Department is suing Colorado, Hawaii, Massachusetts, and Nevada.

  • They're the latest among a total of 18 states facing lawsuits.

  • The DOJ has also filed a new lawsuit against Georgia's Fulton County.

  • The Trump administration is trying to force local election officials to turn over all balance and other records from the 2020 election that President Trump lost.
