USA: Supreme Court allows check of voters

180
The Supreme Court is the highest court in the USA. It makes a big decision on Friday. The government of Donald Trump can use a special data base. The name of the data base is SAVE system. With this program officials can check voter lists. They look if voters have the US citizenship. Non-citizens can not vote in the USA.

Donald Trump wants strict rules for the vote. He thinks that many people vote without permission. There are no proofs for this until now. People use the SAVE system before only for social benefits. Trump makes the system bigger. He adds data from the social security. A judge stops the system first. He wants to protect private data of people.

The Supreme Court stops the ban now. The court says: The system helps to prepare the votes. 3 female judges are against the decision. They have fear for honest voters. They think that legal voters delete by errors. This affects people who are US citizens since a short time. The decision is a big success for Donald Trump.
