Specter of voter fraud stalls changes to Minnesota privacy program
MINNEAPOLIS — A Minnesota program that protects the addresses of victims of intimate partner violence and others with high safety needs has become the latest target in the Republican drumbeat over voter fraud, stalling a proposal at the Capitol that proponents say is needed to ensure the safety of participants.
Changes related to the Safe at Home program, which also includes some judges, prosecutors and law enforcement members who might fear retribution, have typically received bipartisan support at the Capitol, including from some Republican legislators who are now calling for a pause on the legislation.
