Washington successfully defends private information of voters as federal government loses another case | Washington State
The federal government cannot force Washington state to give it the private information of all registered Washington voters, a federal judge ruled Tuesday. The ruling in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington dismisses the federal government’s case, which sought to compel the Office of the Secretary of State to break state law and provide the Department of Justice the unredacted private information of millions of Washington voters. The Attorney General’s Office represented the Office of the Secretary of State in this case.
