Two reporters accessed the public database the same day the court ordered it be taken down and elections officials and RCMP announced investigations. One of the two reporters did not receive a cease-and-desist letter and last week informed Elections Alberta of the discrepancy.

This is obviously being overshadowed, but Elections Alberta confirmed today it actually thinks thousands of people accessed the leaked voter list, not just the 566 it sent cease-and-desist letters too last week. From me & @reportrix: thecanadianpressnews.ca/prairies_bc/al… via @CdnPressNews

Shortly before this story went to bed, a spokesman told me Sylvestre did not literally mean much of what he said. I sent his team almost 30 fact checking questions and in at least 11, the spokesman said Sylvestre was speaking rhetorically, not literally.

I went home recently to write about Alberta’s separatists. What I found was a movement dangerously, wildly disconnected from what is real.

If you missed this last night, be sure to check it out this morning. Shocking story out of Alberta and @jengerson has the scoop. Wild stuff. Heads should roll. But probably won't.
Matt Gurney@mattgurney

BREAKING (Rare use of that from me that isn't ironic.) So, @jengerson has got a story to tell, and it's genuinely shocking. I've known the outline of this for a few weeks now, but still. Reading it all woven together blew me away. What a major, major fuck up.

This is the scrum with Brandon Lunty and reporters today in the Alberta legislature. He’s the UCP MLA tasked with overseeing the Alberta government’s re-do of the Electoral Boundary commission’s report, with the help of a new panel.
