A federal judge has determined that a data system developed by the President Donald Trump administration to verify voter eligibility is unlawful. The ruling blocks the federal government from utilizing this tool for screening voters.
The system, identified in some reports as the SAVE database, was designed to assess voter eligibility. This decision prevents the Trump administration from using its overhauled database of Americans' personal information for this purpose.
The judge's finding indicates that President Trump's plan for this voting database cannot proceed as intended. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
