9月28日（路透社）——美国一名法官周一裁定，禁止特朗普政府将对州和地方政府的反恐资金拨付与选举管理改革挂钩。
华盛顿特区联邦地区法官阿米尔·阿里作出的这一判决，是唐纳德·特朗普总统在11月3日中期选举前扩大联邦对选举事务管辖权的努力中遭遇的最新挫折。届时特朗普所在的共和党正力争保住国会参众两院的多数席位。

今年早些时候，美国国土安全部宣布，将扣留20%用于防范恐怖袭击及其他威胁的拨款项目资金，除非州或地方政府采纳该部门支持的选举管理措施。
阿里在周一的裁决中支持了得克萨斯州、俄亥俄州和田纳西州的市县政府——这些地方政府起诉要求叫停该政策，理由是以此类资金作为条件超出了联邦紧急事务管理局的权限。由多数民主党州组成的联盟也就该政策提起了另一项法律诉讼，目前仍在审理中。

这些拨款项目总规模约11亿美元，已实施多年，其中没有任何一项是专门为选举安全设立的。
“国会并未授权将该拨款项目用于联邦紧急事务管理局在此要求的这类选举管理改革——无论这些改革在政策层面是否合理，它们都不是为了防范或应对‘恐怖主义行为’而推行的，”阿里写道。他是民主党总统乔·拜登任命的法官。
国土安全部及代表联邦政府出庭的司法部均未立即回应置评请求。
在宣布这项拨款挂钩计划时，国土安全部部长马克韦恩·穆林表示，新要求将保护选举系统免受外国干涉和网络攻击。
该政策原本要求拨款接受方使用支持手工填写纸质选票的设备，而非电子投票系统，对至少5%的已投选票进行人工审计，并将选民名册与国土安全部数据库比对，确保没有非公民登记投票。

长期以来，特朗普一直谎称美国选举存在大规模投票欺诈，包括他输掉的2020年总统选举。
独立研究和审计结果均显示，投票欺诈极为罕见。

- Summary
- DHS had planned to withhold 20% of anti-terrorism grant funding over election changes
- Judge says FEMA lacked authority to demand election administration reforms through grants
- Policy would require hand-marked paper ballots and manual audits of at least 5% of ballots
Sept 28 (Reuters) – A US judge blocked the Trump administration on Monday from conditioning counterterrorism funds to state and local governments on changes to election administration.
The decision by Washington-based US District Judge Amir Ali marks the latest defeat for President Donald Trump in his bid to increase the federal government’s authority over elections ahead of the November 3 midterms, when his Republicans are fighting to retain majorities in both houses of Congress.

Earlier this year, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it would withhold 20% of funding under grant programs related to preparing for terrorist attacks and other threats until state or local governments adopted election administration measures favored by the administration.
In his ruling on Monday, Ali sided with counties and cities in Texas, Ohio and Tennessee, which sued to block the changes on the basis that the conditioning of such funds exceeded the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s authority. A coalition of mostly Democratic-governed states filed a separate legal challenge to the policy, which remains pending.

The grant programs, totaling about $1.1 billion, have existed for years. None of them were designed with election security specifically in mind.
“Congress did not authorize the grant program to be used for the sort of election administration reforms FEMA demands here — changes that, whether sound or not as a matter of policy, are not advanced to prepare for or respond to ‘acts of terrorism,’” wrote Ali, an appointee of Democratic President Joe Biden.
Neither DHS nor the Justice Department, which represents the federal government in court, immediately responded to requests for comment.
In announcing the plan to condition the funds, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said the new requirements would protect election systems from foreign interference and cyberattacks.
The plan would have required grant recipients to use equipment that accepts hand-marked paper ballots rather than electronic voting systems, manually audit at least 5% of ballots cast, and compare their voter rolls to a DHS database to make sure no noncitizens were registered to vote.

Trump has long made false claims about widespread voting fraud in US elections including the 2020 presidential election that he lost.
Independent studies and audits have found voter fraud to be rare.
