Analysis Summary
A federal judge dismissed a DOJ lawsuit demanding West Virginia's unredacted voter registration data, ruling the request lacked legal basis under the Civil Rights Act. This is the Trump DOJ's latest loss in a series of voter roll access lawsuits it has filed against multiple states. The exact number of these dismissals varies depending on the source and how cases are counted, but the administration has faced repeated rejections in federal courts on similar voter data requests. The ruling reflects judges pushing back on the administration's broad data requests without clear connection to protecting voting rights.
Claims Analysis (3)
โFederal Court REJECTS Department of Justice lawsuit to force Virginia to provide the DOJ with access to its complete statewide voter registration database.โ
A federal judge did dismiss a DOJ lawsuit over voter registration data. However, the state in question is West Virginia, not Virginia. The core ruling is accurate โ the lawsuit was rejected. The location error is material but the legal outcome is verified.
โDOJ is now 0-14 in these cases.โ
Search results show DOJ is actually 0-15 or 0-13 depending on the count date and which lawsuits are included. Democracy Docket's most recent coverage (dated after this post) states 0-15 following Virginia/New Mexico dismissals. The 0-14 figure appears to be outdated or reflects a different count methodology.
โElias Law Group achieved this victory for its clients.โ
Democracy Docket is affiliated with Elias Law Group (Marc Elias), and the post references their cases. However, the linked article text was not provided, so direct verification of Elias Law Group's specific role in this West Virginia case cannot be independently confirmed from the search results shown.
