Lawsuit filed against Alaska Division of Elections for releasing voter data Skip

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) - A new lawsuit against the Alaska Division of Elections claims the state unconstitutionally shared unredacted voter data with the U.S. Department of Justice.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Alaska, with Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) and the ACLU Voting Rights Project, filed the lawsuit Wednesday morning on behalf of the plaintiffs, the League of Women Voters of Alaska and the Alaska Black Caucus.

“Protecting voters’ confidential information is a non-partisan issue,” Marianne Mills, the Co-President for the League of Women Voters of Alaska said in a press release.

“Alaskan voters must be able to trust that the agency tasked with administering our statewide elections is doing everything in its power to protect Alaskans’ privacy and lawful right to vote.”
