WASHINGTON_House Democrats plan to expand their investigation of possible voter suppression to North Carolina and probably Kansas, the chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee said.
"We're looking at the most egregious situations," Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., said in an interview.
Cummings said his committee could wind up investigating at least four states as it digs into whether voting rights were routinely suppressed. The committee could hold hearings, subpoena witnesses and use its findings to shape legislation to remedy whatever problems it found.
