ICE investigated tens of millions of voter records

Reports indicate that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) obtained tens of millions of voter records as part of investigations into alleged election fraud. According to a WIRED investigation, the agency’s investigative division explored incorporating voter data into Palantir’s ELITE system, a technological tool used to identify and locate individuals targeted for deportation.

Palantir stated that voter-roll data had not actually been integrated into the ELITE system. Additionally, reporting from Democracy Docket, based on records obtained through a public-records lawsuit, suggests that officials also explored investigations involving nonprofit organizations that register voters.
