"The danger is once you compile all this information, then hackers only have to go to one place instead of going to all 50-plus jurisdictions that run elections... It’s a hacker’s dream to have all of this private, sensitive information collected somewhere..."

Today, the DOJ sued Colorado for access to its complete voter roll. This marks the 15th state sued over private voter info, 13 of which are led by Democrats.

The GA GOP isn't planning new maps. Yet. "Redrawing district lines in Georgia could make some Republican seats in the closely divided state competitive. And any changes could be preempted by a pending [SCOTUS] decision on the Voting Rights Act."

Georgia isn’t redrawing districts despite Trump’s push. At least for now.
Georgia's Republican leaders say they will wait until the U.S. Supreme Court's Voting Rights Act ruling before deciding whether to redraw congressional maps.

This is a really strong piece by @mjsdc.bsky.social on how Trump's DOJ really messed up in how they tried to finagle Texas's re-redistricting. And now that measure was put on hold by a federal district court. A mess in Texas!
Trump appointed Harmeet Dhillon to the Justice Department so she could own the libs and sue DEI out of existence. But she is a bad lawyer! And her utter incompetence is the main reason why a conservative Trump judge just struck down the racist Texas gerrymander. slate.com/news-and-pol...
