A federal judge dismissed the Trump DOJ's lawsuit demanding West Virginia's full unredacted voter registration file, marking the administration's 13th straight loss in voter-data litigation with no wins. The judge found the DOJ lacked legal basis under the Civil Rights Act to conduct what he called a 'fishing expedition' into sensitive personal information without a clear connection to voting rights protection. This reflects a broader pattern: state courts have consistently rejected the administration's attempts to access comprehensive voter rolls from multiple states since early 2025, suggesting judges view these requests as exceeding executive authority.
