Supreme Court lets Trump admin use database for voter roll reviews
CBS News says the ruling allows a controversial database to be used in reviewing state voter rolls.
The Supreme Court on Friday sided with the Trump administration in its push to use a database to review state voter rolls, according to CBS News. CBS described the database as controversial and said the decision allows its use in that process. The outlet also brought on David Becker, executive director at the Center for Election Innovation and Research, to discuss what the move could mean for voters.
Why it matters: For DMV voters and organizers, voter-roll review fights are not abstract. They can shape how states handle the basic machinery behind who is listed to vote.
