DOJ threatens to prosecute election officials nationwide

What happened

DOJ sent letters to election officials in all 50 states and D.C. warning they could be criminally prosecuted over alleged noncitizen voting, giving them five days to show compliance.

Why it matters

Control over voter rolls, election officials and district lines can change who votes, how votes are counted and whether the result is accepted. It is tracked here under “Prosecute election officials”; the classification describes the documented institutional risk, not a claim about motive.
