Executive Summary
This 2020 compilation contains about 85.3 million U.S. voter records with names and home addresses. Voter registration data is publicly available to varying degrees by state, and this dataset aggregates such records into a single circulating file.
ObscureIQ assessment: High risk of identity theft, political targeting, doxxing, and government-themed phishing. Voter datasets are especially useful for residential targeting and ideological profiling.
Breach Impact
Names paired with home addresses support physical-location profiling, targeted mail/phishing, and doxxing; the data is largely public-record but its aggregation lowers the effort to target individuals at scale.
About USA Voter
This record is an aggregation of U.S. voter registration records, much of which is derived from publicly available state voter rolls rather than a breach of a single system.
Why They Hold Your Data
Voter-record datasets aggregate identity, address, party-registration, precinct, and election-linked records tied to public voter registration systems.
Recent Developments
