Let me tell you about the latest Soros-funded leftist boondoggle: ERIC.
Gateway Pundit reports that "in 2012 the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) was formed as a membership organization primarily for blue States. ERIC is essentially a left wing voter registration drive disguised as voter roll clean up."
Gateway Pundit reports that "Originally funded by the Soros Open Society, it is now responsible for cleaning the voter rolls in 31 States, plus D.C.
ERIC located 17 million new voters for the 2020 election, the most in the history of their organization. For comparison, they only found 5.7 million in 2012, Obama’s reelection.
ERIC doesn’t just manage lists, they demand action. But it’s not the action you would expect, like cleaning voter rolls. ERIC provides each member State a targeted list of people that are not registered to vote. The Membership Bylaws require the State to contact at least 95% of these people within 90 days, soliciting them to register. ERIC also wants specific registration profiles updated and requires the State to contact these voters within 90 days too. It’s essentially a left wing voter registration drive all paid for by the States, not the Democrat Party. The membership fee is $25,000 but costs can run into the millions to fund the activities and membership dues.
Oddly, ERIC has no requirement or mandate that member States clean up their voter rolls. States are only “strongly encouraged” to request ERIC’s voter updates at least once a year. If a member fails to make a request in 425 days, the data will be sent automatically. What’s even more odd, and seemingly corrupt, is that ERIC does NOT want to know who is voting illegally. Their rules explain that “Under no circumstances shall the members transmit any record indicating an individual is a non-citizen of the U.S.” as stated in Exhibit A, 2b. If ERIC hears no evil, then they see no evil."
So they take the names and make sure the states know the illegal voters in their state- SO THEY CAN REGISTER THEM.
Registering illegal voters? It's a Democrat's dream.
But the winds of change are blowing. Recently, Louisiana, Alabama, Missouri, Florida, and West Virginia have all left ERIC.
NOW IS THE CHANCE.
This is funded by Arizona taxpayers. I want to do whatever it takes to eliminate it.
