The Department of Justice on Friday sent a letter to Minnesota's secretary of state demanding records related to the state's voter registration practices, reported KTTC, a television station in Rochester, Minnesota.
"This request is for all federal elections held within the previous 22 months from the date of receipt of this letter, including the March 5, 2024 Primary and November 5, 2024 General Elections," Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon wrote to Secretary of State Steve Simon.
The state has 15 days to produce the records.
The Trump administration has sued 21 states to access voter data, including California, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin.
