The Donald Trump presidential campaign and Republican National Committee asked a judge Monday to prohibit a veterans rights group from intervening in their voter registration lawsuit against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Trump’s lawsuit filed last month accuses Whitmer of illegally allowing voter registration at places such as the Department of Veterans Affairs and Small Business Administration. Whitmer last year issued an executive directive to designate Saginaw VA Medical Center, the Detroit VA Medical Center and the department’s Detroit regional office as voter registration agencies. She also allowed people to register to vote at the state Department of Health and Human Services and Housing Development Authority, among others.
