The story is here. Although the article refers to “internal DOJ documents” I do not see any of them posted in the story, so at this point there will be a dispute over the veracity and/or accuracy of the story. I will update if there are any corroborating documents posted.
If the story is true, it would be a parallel to the overruling of voting section career attorneys by the Bush Administration when it came to Georgia’s voter i.d. law.
