SF 2492 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Statewide voter registration system data classification provision

This bill classifies voter registration data in Minnesota's statewide system, specifying which information is public and which is private. It defines basic details like name, address, and birth year as public data, while making sensitive identifiers (such as Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and military IDs) private. Voters can request that their name be withheld from public lists for safety reasons, and anyone accessing the data must provide written assurance it won't be used for non-election purposes. The bill directly affects voters (through privacy options) and election officials (who must handle data classification and access requests).
