司法部长托德·布兰奇拒绝排除美国司法部可能介入各州中期选举认证流程的可能性，称存在可能触发联邦行动的极端场景。
周四在弗吉尼亚州对记者发表讲话时，布兰奇表示他无意“不当干预选举”，但如果出现“末日场景”，他不排除联邦介入的可能。
“当然，我们都能设想出一些假设场景，比如某种末日场景，对吧？”他说，“所以，我认为就未来会发生什么做出任何结论性声明都不合适，因为我根本不知道未来会发生什么。”
布兰奇表示，他无法断言美国司法部永远不会介入任何情况。

“当然，我不会那么说，”他表示，“但我为选举筹备的工作难道是要去某个地方阻止认证吗？当然不是，绝对不是。”
根据宪法和联邦法律，美国司法部在选举中的职能有限，主要是维护民权和起诉违反选举法的人员。联邦法律并未明确授权该部门质疑选票或推迟某州的选举结果认证。
根据宪法和联邦法律，美国选举由州和地方官员管理，而非联邦政府。
在诺福克的一场新闻发布会上，布兰奇被问及美国司法部针对各州提起的诉讼，该诉讼试图迫使官员提供未涂黑处理的选民数据，并阻止联邦政府称可能为非公民的数千人投出的选票计票。

布兰奇表示，美国司法部“并非试图制造混乱”，而是希望提醒官员注意潜在问题。
“我并非要阻止选举认证，绝对不是，”布兰奇说，“我们要做的是向美国人民保证，只有符合投票资格的人才能投票。”
针对布兰奇的表态，参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党参议员查克·舒默表示，参议院民主党人“已为此筹备数月，无论政府官员试图做什么，我们都将做好准备”。
“特朗普及其同伙试图窃取这次选举，我们将在每一个环节与他们抗争，”舒默在X平台发帖称，“我们的选举必须永远属于选民——而非唐纳德·特朗普。”
政府上周起诉加州选举官员，称他们未能足够迅速地审查联邦政府确定的疑似非公民人员姓名。美国司法部要求法官阻止该州计票这些人的邮寄选票，除非能确认其投票资格。

加州州务卿办公室表示，仅获得48小时时间审查约2万个姓名。
美国司法部还在考虑对各州提起更多与选举相关的诉讼，但本周一名联邦法官暂时限制了9个州在选举日之前的某些与选举相关的外勤行动和问询。法官将该命令推迟至周五晚间，以便政府有机会上诉。
本周早些时候，民主党领导人和选举组织起诉该政府，指控其在选举日之前实施“威胁与恐吓”。
唐纳德·特朗普总统多次表示，非公民投票对选举公正构成严重威胁，尽管历史上在联邦选举中，有记录的非公民投票案例一直极为罕见。

Attorney General Todd Blanche refused to rule out whether the Department of Justice could seek to intervene in states’ midterm election certification processes, saying there are extreme scenarios that could prompt federal action.
Speaking to reporters in Virginia on Thursday, Blanche said it was not his intention to “improperly interfere with elections,” but declined to rule out federal involvement if a “doomsday scenario” were to happen.
“Of course there’s scenarios that we can all come up with hypothetically, you know, some doomsday scenario, for example, right?” he said. “So, I don’t think it’s proper to make any kind of conclusory statements about what’s going to happen in the future, because I have no idea what’s happening in the future.”
Blanche said he could not say there were no circumstances under which the DOJ would get involved.

“Of course, I’m not going to say that,” he said. “But am I planning my days around the election to be somewhere to not certify? Of course not, no, not at all.”
The DOJ’s role in elections is limited under the Constitution and federal law, allowing it primarily to safeguard civil rights and prosecute people who violate election law. Federal law does not specifically authorize the department to challenge ballots or delay a state’s certification of election results.
Under the Constitution and federal law, U.S. elections are run by state and local officials rather than the federal government.
During a news conference in Norfolk, Blanche was questioned about the DOJ’s litigation against states, seeking to force officials to turn over unredacted voter data and halt the counting of ballots cast by thousands of voters the federal government argues are likely noncitizens.

Blanche said the DOJ was “not trying to create chaos” but wanted to alert officials to potential problems.
“I’m not trying to not have an election certified. Of course not,” Blanche said. “What we’re trying to do is guarantee to the American people that the only people that are voting are people that are eligible to vote.”
In response to Blanche’s comments, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Senate Democrats “have been preparing for this for months and will be ready” for whatever administration officials try.
“As Trump and his cronies attempt to steal this election, we are fighting them at every turn,” Schumer posted on X. “Our elections must always belong to the voters — not Donald Trump.”
The administration sued California election officials last week, arguing they failed to act quickly enough to review names the federal government identified as likely noncitizens. The DOJ asked a judge to block the state from counting mail-in ballots from those individuals unless their eligibility could be confirmed.

The California secretary of state’s office said it was given only 48 hours to review roughly 20,000 names.
The DOJ was also weighing additional election-related litigation against states, but a federal judge this week temporarily restricted certain election-related field operations and interviews in nine states through Election Day. The judge stayed the order until Friday evening to give the administration an opportunity to appeal.
Earlier this week, Democratic leaders and election groups filed a lawsuit against the administration, accusing it of “threats and intimidation” ahead of Election Day.
President Donald Trump has repeatedly said noncitizen voting poses a serious threat to election integrity, although documented instances of noncitizens casting ballots in federal elections have historically been rare.
