Pennsylvania Republicans on Wednesday voted to subpoena personal information on every voter in the state as part of a taxpayer-funded probe into former President Donald Trump's election loss 10 months earlier.


Jake Corman, the Republican state Senate leader, disputed Trump and his allies' false claims about election fraud in Pennsylvania last year but has since buckled under pressure from the Trump wing of the party and committed to conducting a "full forensic investigation" of the 2020 election after the former president and his allies pushed for an Arizona style election "audit."


The Republican-led state Senate Intergovernmental Operations Committee moved ahead with the probe on Wednesday, voting to subpoena Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf's administration for detailed voter records including names, dates of birth, driver's license numbers, last four digits of Social Security numbers, addresses and methods of voting for every voter who participated in the November election and the May 2020 primaries.


Committee chairman Sen. Cris Dush, who traveled to Arizona to review that state's so-called audit, acknowledged during Wednesday's hearing that there have been no "proven allegations" of fraud but insisted that Republicans were responding to "questions regarding the validity of people who have voted — whether or not they exist."

The Pennsylvania GOP's move to subpoena personal information from every voter for a 2020 election "fraudit" raises serious privacy concerns. This overreach undermines the fundamental trust in democratic processes and risks exposing sensitive data to potential misuse. Instead of fostering transparency, such actions threaten to erode public faith in the electoral system. Safeguarding voter privacy should remain paramount, without subjecting citizens to unnecessary intrusion.
