The Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security stated that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is not planning operations targeting polling locations during the upcoming midterm elections, though it left open the possibility of actions based on intelligence. A letter from Senate Democrats raised concerns about potential federal law enforcement interference at polling sites, which the administration denied.
