DHS boss Mullin warns of possible prosecution for election officials over voter roll access

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin issued a stern warning to election officials in non-compliant states, threatening legal action if they don't cooperate with directives to bolster voting machine security and share voter data with federal authorities. This move highlights a significant escalation in federal oversight of state election processes, raising concerns about the balance between national security measures and state autonomy. The implications could lead to increased tensions between federal and state election officials, potentially disrupting the electoral process ahead of the November midterms.
