President Trup’s voting commission asked all 50 states for voter names, addresses, party affiliation and voting records, part of an investigation into voter fraud by a commission he launched last month.
Officials in 10 states already announced they would not comply at all with the request. Those states are California, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Mexico, New York, South Dakota, Tennessee and Virginia.

President Trump tweeted about this earlier on Saturday:
“What are they trying to hide?”
Numerous states are refusing to give information to the very distinguished VOTER FRAUD PANEL. What are they trying to hide?

California won’t give the requested information to the Trump administration but sells it to organizations in the state.

From a NBC 7 San Diego News article back in June 2013:
If you’re a registered voter, are you aware that what you write on your registration form is publicly available?
“Commercial” interests are barred from that data.

Buyers are only a phone call away from you.
