A federal appeals court ruled Wednesday that Michigan does not have to hand over the personal information of registered voters.
The release of birth dates, driver's license numbers, and partial Social Security numbers is not covered by a law cited by the Department of Justice, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said in a 2-1 opinion, upholding the decision of a federal judge in Lansing, Michigan.
The judges ruled that Title III of the 1960 Civil Rights Act does not require the Justice Department to force Michigan to hand over its voter rolls.
The voter rolls contain a person's date of birth, partial Social Security numbers, and driver's license numbers of every registered voter in the state.
The Trump administration has been repeatedly defeated in court in its attempts to get states to turn over the information.
