Oregon Judge Dismisses DOJ Bid for Unredacted Voter Rolls

A federal judge in Oregon dismissed the Justice Department's bid to obtain unredacted voter registration lists for about 3.8 million voters, saying the DOJ failed to meet the legal standard. Oregon argued privacy and First Amendment protections bar such disclosures. The ruling is part of a broader DOJ effort to access state voter rolls that has faced setbacks in other states, though DOJ documents show coordination with the DHS on data use for investigations.
