It’s Time To Set the Record Straight on ERIC’s LiesAP If the Left ignores you, keep digging. When the Left tries to gag you, you’re onto something. Nothing better illustrates that fact than the recent battle over the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC), which goes to the very heart of our election system.
ERIC was supposedly designed to help states cull their lists of voters who’ve died, moved, or otherwise become ineligible. That’s a noble cause – yet data from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission shows that non-ERIC states do a better job of removing ineligible voters from their rolls than do ERIC’s members.
Perhaps that’s because ERIC doesn’t force members to actually clean their rolls – the very thing we’re told it was created to do. In fact, it makes this process optional and surprisingly tedious.
When Republican secretaries of state and conservative watchdog groups questioned this, they immediately came under fire from partisans posing as reporters, who began denigrating skeptics as “far-right conspiracy theorists” and “election deniers” for asking ERIC tough questions. One wonders whether the activists at the New York Times, Washington Post, and Associated Press even recognize genuine investigative journalism these days.
Here’s the truth: ERIC was created to expand the nation’s voter rolls, not clean them.

ERIC is a fraud and a fig leaf, designed by the left to pretend voter rolls are clean.
“ERIC was supposedly designed to help states cull their lists of voters who’ve died, moved, or otherwise become ineligible.”
That is a fool’s errand, one of those things that can NEVER happen.
There is a simple solution. Just wipe the voter rolls after every presidential election and start over. Everybody must re-register IN PERSON with valid government ID. You have 3-1/2 years to re-register for the next federal election, less if you have state or local elections the following June. Just use sworn deputy registrars at every local precinct to do the job. Being a voter registrar is a great job for retired people and they would jump at the chance to ensure voting integrity.
We piss away billions every year on garbage. A nationwide program like this couldn’t cost more than a couple hundred million.
When I had to get a NY birth certificate with my parent’s names to get a passport, the ID verification was based on voter registration info I believe.
The FEC could act as a central registrar.
Any ballot for a congressional election would be provisional unless it was issued based on one’s federal tax ID, name, place & date of birth.
There is nothing fair and open. Machines are fixed. Ballot boxes are stuffed. Fake ballots printed here and overseas. Dominion fixes the algorithms. ERIC does not clear people as it should. Unions, illegal aliens, USPS, NGO’s and the DNC all commit fraud in every election. Judges, courts, secretaries of state, legislatures, governors. There is probably an honest district in rural Maine or somewhere in the Upper Peninsula could have a 90% honest election.
The elections are fixed.
ERIC achieves the opposite of its stated goals. it tells Ds where to send ballots that won’t be legitimately returned—or challenged later. Harvesters collect, vote, return...no one the wiser.
it’s addresses, not just ballots.
