The People’s Republic of China (PRC) obtained the voter registration records for 18 states, including Alaska.

Multiple independent sources, including declassified intelligence and official White House transparency reports, indicate that the PRC gained access to voter registration data from at least 18 U.S. States. These reports specify that the total number of compromised voter records is in the hundreds of millions, with figures around 200 to 220 million entries cited. The states affected include a broad range geographically, and Alaska is mentioned among them in some reports.

However, it is important to note that much of this voter registration data is publicly accessible or obtainable through state-level public records requests, which complicates the characterization of this as a unique or unprecedented breach. Some sources emphasize that while the data was accessed by Chinese actors, the information itself is often not highly sensitive individually but could be aggregated for potential misuse.

The White House and intelligence community have framed this as a significant election security vulnerability. There is no credible evidence disputing that China accessed these records; rather, debate centers on the nature and impact of the data obtained.
