The GOP voter database has been leaked. If you are a registered Republican all of your personal data is now freely available online. Now that the list is out there, how long until the Libs start the Day of the Noose to purge these voters?

>The unprotected data included voter names, birthdays, addresses, voting and registration history, and phone numbers. According to UpGuard, the data also included analysis of voters’ stances on different policy issues—in one 50 GB database, voters were “scored with a decimal fraction between zero and one across forty-six columns” to represent how likely the voter was to agree with certain policy and belief statements, including clear statements like: “AmericaFirstForeignPolicy_agree,” “FinancialServicesHarmful_agree,” “FossilFuelsNeedToMoveAwayFrom,” “LowerTaxes_agree,” “PharmaCompsDoGreatDamage_agree,” “RepealObamacare_agree,” “NonReluctantDJTVoter,” and “StopIllegalImmigration_agree.”

>Roughly 25 terabytes, which is enough hard drive space to store around 500 complete Blu-Ray movies. Noted security researcher Chris Vickery says, "In terms of the disc space used, this is the biggest exposure I've found." He adds, "In terms of the scope and depth, this is the biggest one I've found."

>The data that was leaked includes incredibly detailed profiles on just north of 198 million registered voters, which pretty much accounts for everyone who was eligible to vote in the 2016 election. There were thousands of files, some quite small and others incredibly large. Just two Excel files, for example -- one on Hillary Clinton and another containing research on Reddit users -- totaled almost 400GB.
