The U.S. Department of Justice announced today it will monitor polling sites in Detroit, Hamtramck, Lansing, and East Lansing during Michigan’s primary election to ensure compliance with federal voting rights laws. The Civil Rights Division’s Voting Section, alongside U.S. Attorney offices in Michigan, will oversee the initiative to promote transparency and ballot security. The effort aligns with federal statutes including the Voting Rights Act and the Help America Vote Act. DOJ personnel will address public concerns or complaints related to potential voting rights violations until Election Day on November 3, 2026. The department emphasized its commitment to nonpartisan monitoring and collaboration with local jurisdictions to uphold election integrity.
