A heavily redacted 2023 government report states that a PRC-linked actor provided requested 2020 city-level voter data covering seven U.S. states, but the identities, source qualifications, purpose, and precise report date are withheld.
The visible text says a PRC-linked but redacted entity provided requested U.S. voter data from several cities in seven states during 2023. Because the surrounding actors and context are redacted, the passage does not disclose who requested or received the data or why.
“U.S. voter data from several cities within seven U.S. states”
The report says a redacted actor had previously purchased 2020 voter data and provided a sample covering cities in Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Michigan, and North Carolina.
“a sample of U.S. voter data that contained data from cities within Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Michigan, and North Carolina.”
Another visible exchange asks whether data were available for Connecticut and Massachusetts; the response only says the redacted respondent would ask another redacted party. The page therefore records an inquiry, not confirmation that additional Massachusetts data were obtained.
“had any data on the U.S. states of Connecticut and Massachusetts”
