Secure Democracy USA Statement in Support of ERIC

Accurate, Up-to-Date Voter Rolls Vital to Secure, Trusted Elections


The Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is a multi-state, non-profit organization entirely dedicated to maintaining accurate and up-to-date voter rolls. As several participating states consider their future membership in the organization, Secure Democracy USA’s Vice President of Advocacy Charley Olena released the following statement of support for ERIC:

"Secure Democracy USA strongly supports ERIC and its mission to maintain accurate voter rolls and secure election systems across more than two dozen states. ERIC was created by election officials, for election officials, to ensure accurate and up-to-date voter rolls all across the country.

"Building and maintaining confidence in our elections has never been more important, and trusted, bipartisan resources such as ERIC help do exactly that. Secure Democracy strongly encourages states to reject misinformation and recognize the valuable service ERIC provides to election officials and voters alike."
