The department stated over 200,000 voters lack Social Security and driver’s license numbers.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) sued the North Carolina State Board of Elections this week for violating federal election law, the Help America Vote Act. The state allegedly failed to collect key identification items from voters, specifically driver’s license numbers or the last four digits of their Social Security numbers. The complaint estimates that over 200,000 North Carolina registrations in the state’s database are missing information.
The DOJ’s complaint stated, “Defendants have failed to maintain accurate lists in North Carolina’s computerized statewide voter registration in violation… of HAVA and the sacred trust that the people of the State of North Carolina have put in them to ensure the fairness and integrity of elections for Federal office in the state, necessitating this litigation.”
President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March regarding the enforcement of federal election laws. His order stated, “Above all, elections must be honest and worthy of the public trust. That requires voting methods that produce a voter-verifiable paper record allowing voters to efficiently check their votes to protect against fraud or mistake. Election-integrity standards must be modified accordingly. It is the policy of my Administration to enforce Federal law and to protect the integrity of our election process.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Attorney General Pam Bondi to be led by the Lord as she heads the DOJ.
- For Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon as she oversees the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division.
- For President Trump to receive God’s wisdom as he seeks to ensure federal election laws are upheld and enforced.
