DOJ’s election plan raises threat of ‘selective enforcement’ against red states, watchdog warns
'Their hope is to get through the midterm election ... before the full scope of this scheme comes to light'

The Justice Department this week outlined the steps it will take on Election Day to ensure a fair election process, but a government watchdog is warning that the plan leaves out critical details that open the door to selective enforcement against red states.
The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) said the lack of detail in the DOJ announcement likely means "selective transparency and selective enforcement, something we've come to expect from the Biden administration's two-tiered approach to justice."
The Justice Department released a summary of its "comprehensive" Election Day plan Wednesday and said it is aimed at ensuring that "all qualified voters have the opportunity to cast their ballots and have their votes counted free of discrimination, intimidation or fraud in the election process.
"Consistent with longstanding Justice Department practices and procedures," the Civil Rights, Criminal and National Security Divisions will spearhead the effort.
