Los Angeles prosecutors accused the CEO of Michigan-based Konnech, an election software company, of being involved in a “massive” data breach affecting several thousand victims—including minors.
Konnech employees were sending personal identifying information of Los Angeles election workers to third-party software developers in China “who assisted in creating and fixing” Konnech’s software known as PollChief, according to a complaint California prosecutors filed on Oct. 14.
Los Angeles County prosecutors alleged in court that the amount of data involved in the breach was “astounding,” adding that “this is probably the largest data breach in United States history.”
In August, Luis Nabergoi, a Konnech project manager overseeing the Los Angeles contract, wrote in a Chinese-owned messaging app that any employees for Chinese contractors working on PollChief software would have “superadministration” access to the client data, the complaint alleges.
The message also described the situation as a “huge security issue,” according to the complaint.
On Oct. 4, the day of Yu’s arrest, Nabergoi allegedly told employees in an internal email that the company was “moving to a new stage in the company maturity and we need to ensure the security privacy and confidentiality,” according to the court filing.
Nabergoi added that to accomplish this, personal data would no longer be included in the fixing of Konnech’s PollChief software, the complaint said.
Konnech has acknowledged that it had a subsidiary in China, which it said it closed last year.

Here's why #ArrestKatieHobbs is trending worldwide:
John Thaler of Harris/Thaler Law Firm claims he uncovered absolute proof showing that the Sinaloa cartel (formerly led by El Chapo) bribes high-ranking officials in Arizona including Katie Hobbs, Adrian Fontes, Kris Mayes, etc. The cartel allegedly uses this influence to rig Arizona's elections, launder money using falsified trust deeds for single-family purchases, successfully traffick drugs/humans through the southern border, etc.
Thaler claims that the cartel uses intimidation tactics to silence anyone that may be a threat to their extensive racketeering.
The investigator also includes a declaration showing that in October 2020, they discovered 25,000 falsified ballots at a Maricopa County residence belonging to someone they were investigating with lots of cash involved.
Thaler claims his team reviewed 120,000 documents in Arizona and found tens of thousands of direct pieces of evidence proving the allegations.
