Electronic Registration Information Center

To improve the accuracy of Americas voting rolls, ERIC provided its members with access to information on voter registration records that were inaccurate or out-of-date due to voters changing residences. Members contacted these voters via mail in order to correct the inaccuracy or obtain information sufficient to inactivate or update the voters record. ERIC also provided information on voters who appeared to be deceased based on official death data from the Social Security Administration. To help identify and prosecute illegal voting, ERIC provided members with reports that flagged voters in the 2022 General Election who may have voted more than once in their state, voted in more than one state (among ERIC members), or voted on behalf of a deceased voter. To increase participation in elections, ERIC identified potentially eligible but unregistered residents in member states. Members contacted these individuals via a mailing that included instructions for how to best register to vote. The mailing included the eligibility requirements and voter registration deadlines. Summary statistics of these efforts are available at www.ericstates.org. ERIC experiences a decrease in membership. As of June 30, 2023, 26 states and the District of Columbia were members of ERIC.
