A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Bradford County Election Department on October 30, 2024. The request, made by Northern Tier News, sought detailed reports regarding pre-election testing of voting machines.

The specifics of the request included obtaining records under the Pennsylvania Right to Know Law, with a preference for electronic format. Northern Tier News requested these records to be in PDF format and include key information such as the test date, machine manufacturer, machine model number, and machine status indicating whether it passed or failed.
