The secretary of state of a battleground state said Monday he reluctantly handed over the names of about 218,000 voters to the lawyers of right-wing activists following a court order, according to a report.
Adrian Fontes (D-AZ) faced a massive legal setback in a case involving the release of voter information. A state appeals court upheld a lower court's ruling forcing the secretary of state’s office to release a list of voters incorrectly classified as having access to the state's full ballot due to a coding glitch.
