Judge blocks feds from withholding terror funds over election rules
Original: Feds can't withhold counterterrorism funds from states to force election admin changes, judge rules
A federal judge has ruled that the federal government cannot withhold counterterrorism funding from states as a way to force changes to how they administer elections. The decision limits the use of grant conditions tied to election policy and is being closely watched by state officials and election administrators concerned about federal overreach.
Why now: A new court ruling directly limits federal leverage over state election administration, a politically charged issue.
