On December 2, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit against the state of New Mexico alleging that the state has failed to provide information about voter list maintenance procedures and electronic copies of statewide voter rolls. The lawsuit alleges that New Mexico and its Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver violated the Civil Rights Act of 1960 by refusing to produce a current unredacted electronic copy of the state’s voter registration list. New Mexico sent the DOJ the publicly available list but expressed concerns over the rights and privacy of its citizens after the DOJ demanded unredacted voter list data, which would contain personally identifiable information such as partial Social Security numbers.
