And that database has enough info on it to probably qualify for breach of personally identifiable information (PII)
How do I handle that? Who do I report it to in order to make sure they clean their crap up and not let anyone harvest the info?

Odds are they'll only look into it once it directly affects elected officials.
But start with the county commissioner, County sheriff, and local FBI field office if there's one in the county.
Expect a headache because "you found this loophole so you must have been doing something you shouldn't"
If you start the chain of "this isn't supposed to be this way" with law enforcement, they'll argue about whose responsibility it is, but it should be quicker than some random clerk who barely knows how to use the printer.
In Florida the State sells that info to insurance companies, etc.
So it is already available in the most remote area of China.
The IT department. They're the ones that will care.

The headache is something I'd prefer to avoid. I found it cause the captcha service wasn't working and I was inspecting the page source to find what website I needed to unblock.
Here's how you solve all the issues: give this list to the seediest individual you can find. Now, anonymously, report that the most important person on that list is now in danger.
Anonymously report it to the local news "investigation team"? Which may be about the same as Vajingo said above. 
Find a politician's info in it. Then send them a link.

this is the answer
Sell it to a lawyer.
While I'm kidding of course, I think in some places citations are technically public record, and therefore being available on the web isn't a breach, though it does probably make it a lot easier for a few lawyers who are harvesting the info easily from it.
There's a whole economy of stuff like this that lawyers do pay big money for. Leads.
Check out the price of AdWords for something like "divorce attorney miami". $50+ PER CLICK isn't uncommon.
Criminal convictions are generally a matter of public record. While this initially seems like something you'd want to keep private, consider that secret convictions are a hallmark of police states, people "disappearing" in the night, etc.
In reply to codrus (Forum Supporter) :
I am fine with criminal convictions being public record, but I actually have a traffic case that I was found not guilty on and should never have even been pulled over for, but it is still public record. The irritating thing is that the public record shows my full name, DOB, address, DL #, lic plate #, and last 4 of my SSN. That really shouldn't all be public info, even if I would have committed a non-traffic crime, yet alone because I got a ticket that was thrown out due to me not breaking the law.
