This is news to me, and I'm having a hard time searching for information about it. Can you link me to where this record is?

It's public record, but it's usually available on request with agreements as to legitimate use. The exact contents differ by state, and the application may be through the state or county election office. There is a rough summary here: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/access... but it's not entirely accurate (e.g., it doesn’t indicate vote history—whether, not how, a voter voted in particular past elections—is available in CA, but it definitely is. e.g., the Sacramento County request form has a box to check to include it https://elections.saccounty.net/Documents/Application%20to%2...
