The Electronic Registration Election Center – better known by its acronym, ERIC, may be about to lose another customer: the commonwealth of Kentucky. After Monday’s meeting of the state Board of Elections, Secretary of State Michael Adams spoke about potentially leaving a system he said helped eliminate 320-thousand ineligible Kentucky voters – about half of them dead – from the voting rolls.
“There's no policy rationale in favor of voter rolls that are not accurate. Every government record should be accurate. And this is one of the things I promised I would do if I were elected. And we've done it. And Eric's been a big part of that.”
