ICE emails show DHS explored Palantir-linked tool for voter fraud probes

Documents obtained by Democracy Forward via a FOIA request reveal that DHS officials examined using a Palantir-supported tool to investigate alleged illegal voting. The records show ICE's Homeland Security Investigations division, through its Innovation Lab, has been developing systems that combine DOJ voting rolls and USCIS data, with plans to later add criminal history records. The same document cache shows DHS has investigated more than 150 nonprofits over suspicions they helped noncitizens register to vote.

ICE moves to build $5 million nationwide voter database contract

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has published documents outlining plans to award a contract worth up to $5 million for building a national database of voter registration and voting history records. The contract, managed by Homeland Security Investigations, would require the winning company to pull publicly available voter files from all 50 states, including data on which federal elections people voted in. ICE says the contractor won't initially be asked to collect party affiliation data, but that could change if a contracting officer directs it in writing.
