This was the first ever voter list maintenance claim filed under the Help America Vote Act.

(St. Paul, MN) โ€“ May 9, 2022: The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), with the Upper Midwest Law Center acting as local counsel, filed a Help America Vote Act (HAVA) Complaint against Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon for failing to remove duplicate names from the stateโ€™s voter roll as required by federal law.

Minnesota, along with 5 other states, is exempted from the voter list maintenance requirements of the National Voter Registration Act.

The Foundationโ€™s analysis found 586 duplicate registrants, meaning the same person is registered twice. HAVA requires states to implement a computerized statewide voter registration list that is โ€œaccurate and updated regularlyโ€ where โ€œduplicate names are eliminated from the computerized list.โ€

โ€œThis is the first time a voter list maintenance complaint has been filed under HAVA,โ€ย said PILF President, J. Christian Adams.ย โ€œThis is an innovative approach to clean voter rolls and improve election integrity. PILF is leading the way in cutting edge legal strategy to protect free and fair elections. This complaint will result in removing the duplicate registrants from Minnesotaโ€™s voter roll.โ€

The attorney for the Public Interest Legal Foundation in this case is Charlotte Davis.
