A one-page White House Government Transparency Task Force statement announcing an initial disclosure of declassified intelligence records and presenting the task force's claims about PRC compromise of U.S. voter-registration data.
The task force states that this was its first disclosure of U.S. Intelligence Community records declassified the previous week under President Trump's direction.
“Today the Government Transparency Task Force announces the first disclosure of U.S. Intelligence Community records that were declassified last week under the direction of President Trump.”
The statement claims that PRC actors compromised voter-registration rolls from at least 18 states, not all identified, and separately claims that more than 200 million voter records were compromised without state-specific affiliations. These are assertions in the statement; the one-page document does not present the underlying records or methodology.
“The declassified intelligence reveals that voter registration rolls from at least 18 states (not all identified by name) have been compromised by the People's Republic of China (PRC).”
“Additional intelligence records reveal that more than 200 million voter records were also compromised by the PRC, without state-specific affiliations.”
The statement says congressional and state-government leaders were being alerted to election-infrastructure vulnerabilities and lists 16 states plus the District of Columbia by name, while noting elsewhere that not every affected state was identified.
“President Trump is alerting Congressional and state government leadership officials to the election infrastructure vulnerabilities in states identified by name in the declassified intelligence records.”
