New Jersey Voter ID Numbers Reconfigured with Shift Cipher

Abstract:

This study examines New Jersey voter identification numbers for hidden algorithmic attributes, following similar findings in New York, where algorithms could track certain illegal records. Analysis reveals complex obfuscation patterns in New Jersey, including shift ciphers, in these public-facing numbers. The purpose of such obfuscation in accessible data is unclear, raising transparency concerns. Approximately 102,854 potentially erroneous or falsified records were discovered, indicating serious integrity issues. While no direct link was found between these problematic records and the algorithmic modifications, their coexistence is concerning. The ability to algorithmically track illegal records, as seen in New York, suggests a potential for misuse. These findings have significant implications for election integrity and data management practices.
