The US Department of Justice has issued several subpoenas to obtain voter information. These subpoenas were directed at the Nevada Secretary of State. The Secretary of State's office reported receiving seven subpoenas related to voters over the past three months, which were processed through the FBI.

The Secretary of State, Francisco Aguilar, criticized the Department of Justice's decision to request this information. Further details about the situation are available from the source.

The Department of Justice's actions represent an effort to involve the federal government more directly in election management.
