Would you believe its on a web site...

http://www.sizes.com/home/handles_broom.htm

"In the United States, most threaded handles for brooms, paint
rollers, extension poles for window washing brushes and squeegees, and
so forth, have threads ¾ inch in diameter, 5 threads per inch, Acme
form."

And you can get taps and ties for same from the usual woodworking
suppliers. New broomsticks are cheaper, though.
