Font size

Der Supreme Court hat der Regierung von US-Präsident Donald Trump die Nutzung einer zentralen Datenbank zur Überprüfung von Wählerlisten erlaubt. Damit hat das Gericht eine frühere Entscheidung vor einem Bundesgericht aufgehoben. Dieses hatte Trumps Datenbank für rechtswidrig erklärt.

Im Mittelpunkt steht das sogenannte SAVE-System, das ursprünglich der Überprüfung von Einwanderungs- und Staatsbürgerschaftsstatus bei Behördenleistungen diente. Trumps Regierung hatte die Datenbank ausgebaut und unter anderem Informationen der Sozialversicherungsbehörde eingebunden. Bundesstaaten sollten damit Wählerlisten auf mögliche Nichtstaatsbürger überprüfen können.

Open Questions

  • Wie werden die Bundesstaaten das System nun konkret einsetzen?
