"The subpoenas appear to be linked to a series of efforts by the Trump administration to verify the citizenship of registered voters. In December, Texas turned over the state's voter roll to the Justice Department."
"Lubbock County's elections administrator, Roxzine Stinson, said she met with a Homeland Security representative who informed her she would soon receive a subpoena seeking additional information for at least 10 voters, and potentially up to 30."
"Election officials in Brazos County received a subpoena by email this week, Trudy Hancock, the county's elections administrator, confirmed to Votebeat. Hancock said the subpoena specifically requests voter registration records, including voter registration applications, signatures, and voter history."
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is issuing administrative subpoenas to at least three Texas counties for detailed records on individual voters. This action is part of the Trump administration's initiative to verify voter citizenship. Texas previously provided the Justice Department with voter roll data, excluding registration applications and signatures. Lubbock County's elections administrator was informed of an upcoming subpoena for information on 10 to 30 voters. Brazos County has also received a subpoena requesting voter registration records without specifying individual names.
