Common Cause interviene en la demanda sobre datos de votantes en Minnesota.<\/h2>\r\nEl a\u00f1o pasado, Common Cause present\u00f3 una moci\u00f3n para intervenir en una demanda interpuesta por el Departamento de Justicia contra Minnesota que exige que se entregue el archivo de votantes. Un tribunal de distrito ha\u00a0<\/span>Se concedi\u00f3 nuestra moci\u00f3n<\/span><\/b>, lo que significa que Common Cause ahora es parte de la demanda y nosotros estamos\u00a0<\/span>buscando su despido<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

La autoridad legal de los estados para proteger los registros electorales sensibles<\/h2>\r\nPor ley, los estados, no el gobierno federal, tienen la autoridad para mantener sus archivos de votantes, que contienen informaci\u00f3n sensible que incluye nombres completos, direcciones, fechas de nacimiento, licencia de conducir y n\u00fameros parciales de Seguro Social. Sin embargo, la administraci\u00f3n Trump ha estado en una b\u00fasqueda para recopilar estas bases de datos para armar su propio archivo maestro de votantes, una medida que\u00a0<\/span>amenaza la integridad de nuestras elecciones<\/span><\/b>\u00a0y\u00a0<\/span>riesgos de privar del derecho al voto<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>muchos estadounidenses<\/span><\/b>\u00a0de cara a las elecciones de mitad de mandato de 2026.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nLa mayor\u00eda de estos estados, incluido Minnesota, se han resistido a la presi\u00f3n del Departamento de Justicia para entregar datos de votantes y est\u00e1n\u00a0<\/span>Ahora est\u00e1 siendo demandado por ello.<\/span><\/b>\u00a0por la administraci\u00f3n. En respuesta, Common Cause ha presentado mociones para intervenir en varias de estas demandas. Nuestra moci\u00f3n en Minnesota fue aceptada.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Solicitud de desestimaci\u00f3n: \u00bfQu\u00e9 sigue en el caso del expediente electoral de Minnesota?<\/h2>\r\nDe cara al futuro, el Estado de Minnesota, Common Cause y sus socios buscan que se desestime esta demanda, lo que supondr\u00eda el rechazo al intento de la administraci\u00f3n Trump de recopilar estos datos confidenciales.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 riesgos existen si el Departamento de Justicia obtiene los archivos de votantes estatales?<\/strong><\/p>\r\nTrump ha dado se\u00f1ales repetidamente de su disposici\u00f3n a socavar nuestra democracia para mantenerse en el poder.\u00a0<\/span>Continuar difundiendo teor\u00edas conspirativas desacreditadas sobre las elecciones de 2020.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0o\u00a0<\/span>pidiendo a los republicanos que \u201cnacionalicen el voto\u201d,\u201d<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00c9l ha demostrado una y otra vez que\u00a0<\/span>Para \u00e9l, ganar es m\u00e1s importante que una democracia justa y libre.<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nExigir los registros electorales estatales es otro intento de socavar el poder legal de los estados para gestionar las elecciones, y la privaci\u00f3n del derecho al voto que la administraci\u00f3n Trump podr\u00eda llevar a cabo con un registro nacional maestro de votantes es profundamente preocupante.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Purgas estrat\u00e9gicas de votantes y la amenaza que representan para las elecciones de mitad de mandato de 2026<\/h2>\r\nUna lista como esta podr\u00eda usarse para llevar a cabo\u00a0<\/span>purgas estrat\u00e9gicas y generalizadas<\/span><\/b>\u00a0de votantes elegibles de los padrones electorales, incluidas las purgas dirigidas en funci\u00f3n de factores como la ubicaci\u00f3n, la edad y el g\u00e9nero en un esfuerzo por obtener una\u00a0<\/span>ventaja partidista<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nIntercambio de datos entre el Departamento de Justicia y el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional: Impacto en las comunidades inmigrantes de Minnesota.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nY dados los crueles ataques del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional contra los inmigrantes y las comunidades de color, independientemente de su estatus migratorio, una posible base de datos federal como esta representa un riesgo a\u00fan mayor; de hecho, el Departamento de Justicia ya ha tomado medidas al respecto.\u00a0<\/span>ha reconocido<\/span><\/a>\u00a0que es\u00a0<\/span>compartir informaci\u00f3n de los votantes con el DHS<\/span><\/b>. Saber que el gobierno federal ha recopilado una base de datos con informaci\u00f3n sensible podr\u00eda intimidar a los posibles votantes de estas comunidades e impedirles registrarse para votar.\u00a0<\/span>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_accordion","_acfe_flexible_toggle":null,"component_accordion":{"heading":"Minnesota Voter Privacy FAQ","panels":[{"panel_heading":"Why did the court grant Common Cause's motion in the Minnesota lawsuit?","panel_copy":"The district court granted the motion to intervene because Common Cause<\/b> represents the interests of Minnesota voters who are directly impacted by the potential release of their private data.
