ERIC claims to help states update their voter rolls, removing duplicate and dead registrants and comparing data with other members. ERIC is more than a tool to clean state voter rolls. It requires member states engage in partisan voter outreach. Becker created ERIC in 2012 and later switched his role to that of a non-voting member on the board. <\/p>\n<p>Becker, a left-leaning activist, has worked as a lobbyist in the George Soros-funded advocacy organization. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.influencewatch.org\/non-profit\/people-for-the-american-way\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">People for the American Way<\/a> And as a Justice Department attorney with an <a href=\"https:\/\/legalnewsline.com\/stories\/555822683-mark-zuckerberg-beneficiaries-promoting-fair-elections-not-exactly-non-partisan-as-advertised\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vendetta against conservatives<\/a>.

One of these was a demand that Becker be removed from the board. Shortly thereafter, Frank LaRose (Ohio Secretary of State) sent a <a href=\"https:\/\/acrobat.adobe.com\/link\/track?uri=urn%3Aaaid%3Ascds%3AUS%3A0e9daa5b-b161-33ab-b646-5b0be9113e84&#038;viewer%21megaVerb=group-discover\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Let me know<\/a> The board threatened Ohio&#8217;s withdrawal unless it was removed &#8220;ex-officio&#8221; members \u2014 aka, Becker \u2014 from its bylaws, and allowed member states greater freedom in how they utilize ERIC&#8217;s data-sharing services.<\/p>\n<p>Becker stated that he will not accept a renomination on Tuesday in what seems to be a direct response to LaRose.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>Tweet <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/beckerdavidj\/status\/1635668871657996289\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Thread<\/a>Becker ridicules ERIC&#8217;s critics &#8220;election deniers&#8221; They were accused of spreading lies about the group.
