Voter files in Maricopa County, Arizona, were obtained illegally before the 2020 presidential election, according to records released on Aug. 6 by the White House.
The FBI “spent significant resources solving this cybercrime,” FBI Director Kash Patel said in the statement, but prosecutors in Arizona declined to prosecute the man. He has never been charged.
There’s no evidence that any votes were changed in association with the hack, John Solomon, chairman of the White House Government Transparency Task Force, told reporters on a call.
The Maricopa County Recorder’s Office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
