Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers could be present at polling sites if responding to a specific threat or serving a warrant. He said the agency would not patrol polling locations.
The Department of Homeland Security separately said ICE was not planning operations targeting polling locations and described any potential action there as intelligence-driven enforcement tied to an active public-safety threat.
