The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced it would deploy its staff to a county in northeastern Ohio due to what it said were intimidation concerns.

“Voters in Portage County have raised concerns about intimidation resulting from the surveillance and the collection of personal information regarding voters, as well as threats concerning the electoral process,” the DOJ said in an Oct. 15 statement, without providing details about the allegations.
