Actually it is and has been public info in some states. The Committee requested only information which was already public. If it isn’t public in a particular state then the Committee didn’t request it. Take a look at this website http://voterlist.electproject.org/ . It lists what information is available from each state and who is allowed to request it.
Yes, I suspect that you are right. I do have more in common with the folks who are commenting here than is obvious. I guess it’s just my terse style of writing that keeps me from repeating things I agree with. The Committee did proceed with its work in a ham-handed manner. It should’ve publicly stated exactly how the data was to be used before requesting it. It should also include members of other political factions and researchers who are not politically inclined (if there are any). Unfortunately, our President doesn’t realize how important public perceptions are in government.
