Alabama Secretary Of State Discovers Popular Leftist Voter-Roll Group’s Address Is Bogus

Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen made an unexpected visit to the headquarters for a popular voter-roll management organization that has ties to left-wing activists while he was in Washington, D.C. The problem was that he couldn’t find the organization’s address.

“I was in DC for a meeting of the National Association of Secretaries of States and, since I was in town, I went to see the [Electronic Registration Information Center] Headquarters,” Allen stated this in a Statement. “What I found was that there was no ERIC headquarters at that address. There were no employees. There were no servers. There was no ERIC presence of any kind. Instead, I found a virtual office that is rentable by the day. What it was missing was people, servers and any sign of the ERIC team.”

As The Federalist’s Victoria Marshall reportedERIC, a voter-roll management software system, was created by far-left activists David Becker It was sold to states in the following: “quick and easy way” To manage their voter rolls. When states become ERIC members, they give voter data to the group — including the records of unregistered voters. CurrentlyERIC controls voter-roll data in over half of the US and the District of Columbia.

ERIC’s Website Lists a D.C. address within its “Contact Us” section, Allen claimed that the listed location is actually owned by Expansive. This business provides virtual workspaces throughout the country and rents office space daily.

“Before I took office, Alabama transmitted the personal information of millions of our citizens to this private organization for the past several years. That information is stored on a server somewhere but we do not know where. There is no ERIC operation at the location they claim is their office,” Allen said. “A lot of personal data and taxpayer money has been transferred to ERIC. Where is that data? Where are the employees? Where are the offices? Where are the computers?”

A spokesperson for ERIC told The Federalist that the organization was responding to Allen’s claims. “has always operated without a brick-and-mortar office” It also lists the address on its website. “is ERIC’s official mailing address.”

“ERIC utilizes a secure data center outside of Washington, D.C.,” He said. “ERIC staff work remotely from other U.S. locations.”

Allen was sworn in earlier this year as secretary of state. Withdrew Alabama from ERIC, fulfilling an pledge Prior to his election, he made these comments. Allen expressed concern that Alabama would send voter data to outside-of-state entities in a statement announcing his decision. Say it “the data uploads of [private] information from Alabama to ERIC is over.”

ERIC has also been linked to the Center for Election Innovation and Research, a Becker-founded left-wing non-profit.CEIR). Most importantly, CEIR was the group that received the most money from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg prior to the 2020 election.

The grants were then transferred to local election offices all over the country.
