___The records — first obtained by Democracy Forward* through public record requests and ongoing litigation, and shared exclusively with Democracy Docket — include heavily redacted emails between government employees and the external group. They also include the signed voter data agreement and discussion of how data would be transferred between parties.

Internal communications included in the files show discussions about executing a data-sharing agreement and coordinating the transfer of information once finalized, though key details — including the identities of the outside entity and other officials involved — remain blacked out.

One email included in the records offered a glimpse into the tone of the outside group’s outreach, with a sender writing that they had spent extensive time analyzing specific elections and were eager to share data and “theories.”



The records also include referrals for potential violations of the Hatch Act — a federal law that restricts partisan political activity by government employees — suggesting concerns that Trump administration staff may have used their positions and government resources for political purposes.
