Trump administration runs voter eligibility verification program on millions of registrations
The Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security has processed at least 67 million voter registrations from primarily Republican-controlled states through a verification program to identify potential noncitizens and deceased voters. Tens of thousands of registrations have been flagged, with some states requiring people to prove eligibility within a month or facing immediate suspension. Critics and voting rights advocates argue the system is error-prone and could wrongly purge eligible voters before November elections.
