China Harvested Voter Files On 220 Million Americans Since 2020

China Harvested Voter Files On 220 Million Americans Since 2020

The White House says Beijing pulled names, addresses, phone numbers and party affiliation from eighteen states' voter rolls.

  • 220 million voter records taken, covering names, home addresses, phone numbers, party affiliation.
  • Data pulled from voter rolls in 18 states starting in the 2020 election cycle.
  • White House posted the claim on its Election Integrity page, dated July 17, 2026.

Why it matters: Name, phone and party affiliation turn a stolen voter roll into a ready-made targeting list.
