Justice Dept. to monitor elections in 86 counties, most in two decades
Posted on 11/01/2024
The Justice Department on Friday said it will send election monitors to 86 jurisdictions in 27 states on Tuesday, the most in two decades amid growing fears of improper partisan influence and voter suppression.
The announcement comes as officials in some Republican-led states have warned they might attempt to ban federal authorities from entering polling sites on Election Day. They have cast such oversight as partisan meddling from the Biden administration, even though Democratic and Republican administrations have monitored elections for potential voting rights irregularities for decades.
