Another error from Griswold’s office exposes confidential voter records for 11 days
By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice
For 11 days in August, the profiles of Colorado voters who had specifically asked the state to keep their information hidden were searchable by anyone who knew where to look and had the information the tool required.
These are people the state allows to shield their records because they said public disclosure could expose them or a household member to criminal harassment or bodily harm.
On August 14, an update to the Secretary of State's "find my voter registration" tool removed the setting that kept their records out of public view. The office didn't notice until the late afternoon of August 25.
Fifty-nine of those profiles were pulled up before anyone caught the mistake.
