Moving Toward Election Integrity

First of all, until everyone who is guilty of election fraud is put in jail, election fraud will continue. We hear a lot of things about votes that were certified that should not have been certified and other fraud, but when will those responsible for the fraud pay a price?

On Monday, Just the News reported:

Harmeet Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, says the lawsuits she is bringing against both red and blue states over voter list maintenance will help clean voter rolls for the 2026 midterm elections.

With the congressional elections coming up next year, the DOJ said it is trying to ensure that only eligible voters are on states’ voter rolls. While some states have voluntarily complied with the DOJ’s requests for voter registration data or are cleaning the voter rolls themselves, others are refusing to hand over the information, citing privacy concerns.

In a Just the News and Real America’s Voice special report Wednesday with the Association for Mature American Citizens titled “Top Priorities for 2026,” Dhillon said this Trump administration marks the first time that states have been sued to ensure their voter rolls are maintained.

“There had been no prior lawsuits to enforce states’ requirement to keep their voter rolls clean for all federal election rolls, which is basically they keep the same rolls for state and federal elections for the most part,” Dhillon said.

The article notes:

Dhillon also laid out states’ arguments over privacy, noting that “they’re saying, ‘our state law doesn’t allow this.’ But federal law regarding elections and this data trumps state law, and we’re talking about federal elections and people who vote for president, Senate, Congress. We have a right at the federal government level to ensure that only American citizens are voting at only one time in one state when they vote. And so this is a no-brainer.”

She also said that when states tried to clean their voter rolls before, they would get sued, which happened under the Biden administration.

“You’re going to see hundreds of thousands of people in some states being removed from the voter rolls correctly,” Dhillon said. “And by the way, why did they hesitate to do that in the past? Because the DOJ and some left-wing organizations would sue them when they did their jobs. So it’s like, damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

This is one of the first steps toward voter integrity. Hopefully, there will be more.
