* August 29th…
The Illinois Board of Elections says “no more than about 200,000” voters have been affected by a cyber-hacking of the registration rolls this summer.
* From an Illinois State Board of Elections press release today…
The State Board of Elections can confirm that approximately 700 voter records were viewed and those 700 individuals will soon be notified by mail as required by law. In addition, approximately 86,000 records are strongly suspected to have been viewed and the Board staff continues to identify those individuals. Anyone within that group will receive written notification within the next thirty days. There appear to be 3,533 records viewed which will not be able to be identified.
