Democrats and election groups filed a federal lawsuit against President Trump and the Justice Department, seeking to block pressure on states to purge voter rolls before the November election. The complaint alleges federal overreach via 'shoddily compiled lists of supposed noncitizens' and coercive threats, aiming to sow distrust in the outcome. Meanwhile, some arrested green card holders in California said they had no recollection of registering to vote.

Each outlet is read blind: a classifier sees its headline and opening next to the story's own headline, without the outlet's name, and scores how the report presents the story. A logo sits at the classifier's average reading, so it can fall between two levels. These readings compare coverage of this story only; they are not ratings of the outlets.
