What VoterRecords knows about you
VoterRecords does one thing: republishes state voter files in a name-searchable format. Search your name and the result page shows your home address (your registered voting address), party affiliation, voting history, and date of birth in many states. No paywall. No signup.
The data is sourced from state voter rolls. In most states, voter registration is technically public to candidates, parties, and certain researchers — VoterRecords obtains the file through these channels and republishes it for everyone.
Why it matters if you're on the job
For first responders, VoterRecords is one of the more directly damaging exposures because the data is your registered voting address — which is required to be your real residence in most states. You can't substitute a PO Box or work address. The page links your real home to your name in one search.
Most states let cops, judges, prosecutors, and EMS make their voter registration confidential. File it with the county elections office. It only protects the future — anything already published stays out there, on VoterRecords and other broker pages.
How to opt out
The VoterRecords opt-out works but is uniquely vulnerable to re-listing. The next state voter-file refresh (usually quarterly or semi-annually depending on the state) re-syncs the data and you can re-list automatically.
Steps are in the optOutSteps field above.
How long until you're back
Twelve months on average — slower than typical brokers because state voter-file refreshes are infrequent. But once a refresh happens, you re-list immediately. Filing the state-level voter-registration confidentiality election is the upstream protection that breaks this cycle.
What we do that's faster
We file the VoterRecords opt-out and re-check every two weeks. When the state voter-file refresh re-lists you, we file again. We also coordinate with state-level voter-confidentiality elections where you've filed those — most states allow officers to opt to confidentiality but the broker doesn't always honor it without specific notification.
Doing this for one broker is straightforward. Doing it for 200, on a continuous basis, is what we do.
