Article Summary

This article reveals that the Trump administration’s DHS and immigration enforcement agents gathered tens of millions of voter records and investigated dozens of voter-registration groups to hunt for noncitizen voters, based on claims of widespread fraud.

The article builds skepticism about the scale and motives of the effort, highlighting its broad scope and political context without presenting verified cases of widespread fraud to justify it.
