美国联邦上诉法院周三驳回了司法部要求密歇根州交出其选民登记档案中非公开信息的诉求,这是特朗普政府试图从全美各州获取并审计未删减版选民名册行动迄今遭遇的最沉重打击。

美国第六巡回上诉法院表示,密歇根州没有义务向司法部提交可能包含社会保险号码和驾照身份证号码的机密选民数据。

此前已有九名地区法院法官驳回了本届政府的相关诉求。这是上诉法院首次就此案表态,可能为最高法院就此问题展开对决埋下伏笔。

巡回法院法官安德烈·马蒂斯在代表上诉合议庭多数意见撰写的判决书中指出,司法部在这场强制提交数据的诉讼中所依据的1960年民权法案,并不适用于密歇根州的整合式选民档案。

“当年,政府动用这项权力是为了确保所有拥有投票权的人都能自由行使选举权,”马蒂斯写道。“但如今,政府援引第三标题却是为了相反的目的——确保部分民众未曾投票。”

司法部已就拒绝提交未删减版选民名册的30个州提起诉讼。

Appeals court deals biggest setback yet to Trump DOJ’s demands for confidential voter roll data

A federal appeals court on Wednesday rejected demands by the Justice Department that Michigan turn over non-public information in their voter registration files, in the biggest setback yet to the Trump administration’s attempt to obtain and audit unredacted voter rolls from states across the country.

The 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals said that Michigan was not obligated to produce the confidential voter data – which could include social security numbers and driver’s license ID numbers – to the department.

Nine judges at the district court level have ruled against the administration’s efforts. This is the first time an appeals court has weighed in, potentially setting up the stage for a Supreme Court showdown on the issue.

Writing for the appellate panel majority, Circuit Judge Andre Mathis said the 1960 civil rights law Justice Department was relying on in its lawsuit seeking to force the production of the data did not cover Michigan’s aggregated voter file.

“Back then, the government used this power to ensure that everyone who had the right to vote could freely exercise that right,” Mathis wrote. “But today, the government invokes Title III for an inverse purpose—to ensure that some people have not voted.”

The Justice Department has sued 30 states that have refused to produce their unredacted voter rolls.
