“Under the Trump administration, the DOJ’s brief suggested a sizable change to existing law that would do real damage to the Voting Rights Act,” Justin Levitt, a voting law expert at Loyola Law School, said in an interview. He said that the fact that the Biden and the DNC don’t fully agree should be seen as a good sign.
“That shows a welcome return to normal standards at DOJ, where high-profile cases once again follow the best view of the law — even when it means that the President’s party loses an election case,” Levitt said.
