Yrt Another Massive Democrat Criminal Election Fraud Scheme exposed...

Add up all the Democrats known deployed criminal
election fraud conspiracies thus far exposed, from
owning all of fake news and social media, biased funding
of ballot box and election workers, owning mega city
boards of elections, illegal ballot harvesting, cheerily
accepting Soros and Fried's corrupt money, censorship
and disinfo ops both private public and government run,
on and on the list of undue influence goes... and absolutely
none of it originating from the American People themselves,
it becomes crystal clear by far, when adjusted for all that
corrupt massive criminal influence, that...

New documents reveal the Center for Election Innovation and Research’s
true purpose: Juicing Democrat registration in the states, thanks to
data provided by ERIC.

In modern elections, the candidate who can turn out the bigger base is
usually the winner. Put differently, the campaign with better voter
data holds the trump card.

For more than a decade now, Democrats unquestionably have owned that
trump card and used it to carve deep inroads into once solidly red
states such as Arizona, North Carolina, and Georgia, while Republicans
have looked on in bafflement. It’s no secret why the Left is winning
elections despite shrinking in the polls: They register new voters in
droves, and conservatives do not.

More than 160 million people cast a ballot in the 2020 election. Yet
there may be as many as 60 million more eligible-but-unregistered
individuals (EBUs) out there—people who could lawfully vote but may
not until they register in their state. They’re typically hard to
reach and politically disinterested. Yet the party that can tap into
this electoral goldmine—that is, identify and reach these potential
voters—would be unbeatable.

For years, that party has been the Democrats. It may soon be the
Republicans. Here’s why.
Permanent Democratic Power

In 2010, the Supreme Court ushered in a torrent of new political
spending through its Citizens United v. FEC decision. “Progressives”
who were convinced that big business would back Republicans to the
hilt saw doom written on the wall. To counter this Republican tide,
groups such as the Brennan Center proposed adding “millions of new
voters onto the rolls through a modernized registration
system—starting in 2010.”

In short, they needed to balloon the Democratic Party’s ranks to
survive a GOP onslaught—an onslaught that never came.

“Voter registration modernization” proved a euphemism for inserting
operatives into state election machinery. But EBU data is protected
behind layers of federal privacy laws and across multiple state
agencies (e.g. motor vehicle departments) and thus not available to
political groups. It was Pew Charitable Trusts, a powerful
left-of-center funder, that discovered the back door.

Between 2010 and 2012, Pew incubated the Electronic Registration
Information Center (ERIC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that billed itself as
the solution to an entirely different problem presented to the states:
Maintaining their voter rolls, which are notoriously inaccurate and
constantly in flux. For a fee, ERIC would graciously warehouse states’
voter roll data and identify potential double voters using
sophisticated data-matching software.

That’s the sales pitch, anyway. In truth, ERIC makes the removal of
ineligible voters entirely optional and tedious, while mandating
member states spend hundreds of thousands in taxpayer dollars to
register new voters. Far from streamlining voter rolls, ERIC expands
them, which is why non-ERIC states have cleaner rolls than their ERIC
counterparts.

More furtively, ERIC would also gain access to invaluable data on tens
of millions of EBUs—a database that no other group in the world has
access to. But how to use it?
Project Get-Out-The-Vote

We know from public records requests that ERIC soon established a
data-sharing agreement with a heretofore obscure nonprofit, the Center
for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR). Amazingly, the corporate
leftist media continues to claim this inconvenient fact is “without
evidence.”

ERIC and CEIR share a founder: David Becker, a partisan elections
lawyer who previously worked for the far-left People for the American
Way and the Justice Department’s voting rights arm. Becker is well
known as a “hardcore leftist” who can’t “stand conservatives.” Yet Pew
presented him as the nonpartisan face of its ERIC project.

Becker spent four years persuading nearly two-thirds of the states to
join ERIC before departing to found CEIR in 2016. Yet until recently,
Becker remained a nonvoting member of ERIC’s board, courtesy of a
carve-out in ERIC’s bylaws made specifically for him to ensure
continued oversight of the ostensibly “neutral” and state-led
organization.

If ERIC is the face presentable to election officials, CEIR is
Becker’s policy shop. The group was founded with seed capital from the
Hewlett Foundation and eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, who routed the
cash through Arabella Advisors’ massive “dark money” network.

More funding may have come from Pew, which continued to fund CEIR’s
“sister” group, ERIC, for years. We know that CEIR’s other co-founder,
Amy Cohen, led Pew’s Google-funded Voting Information Project, part of
the “voter registration modernization” push. Yet strangely, Cohen
never appears in CEIR’s disclosures as a paid employee, perhaps
because her salary was paid by Pew.

CEIR supports vote-by-mail expansion and ever-earlier voting. It also
pushes the lie that conservatives and Trump supporters are a threat to
election workers while barring center-right reporters from its press
conferences. Becker himself dismisses critics as “fueled by
disinformation” because we “want our democracy to fail.”

CEIR received $70 million from Mark Zuckerberg in 2020, funds that
drove Democratic turnout in Maryland and helped subsidize ERIC’s voter
registration mandate in other states. Pennsylvania received $13
million, Michigan $12 million, New York $5 million, Georgia $5.6
million, and Arizona $4.8 million. How each grant was spent remains
largely unknown, despite watchdog groups’ best efforts.

But CEIR’s founding documents reveal the truth about its origins. It
was created to encourage ERIC membership and “work closely with ERIC”
to register millions of new voters using exclusive EBU data in order
to “turn non-voters into active participants” in future elections.

Imagine having a picture-perfect map of everyone—both registered and
unregistered—living within your state’s borders. A campaign knows that
an individual’s age, race, county of residence, and marital status are
enough to strongly indicate how that person will vote. How difficult
would it be to only target your own party’s likely voters?

Armed with this near-perfect picture of every person living in ERIC’s
32 member states—more than 200 million Americans—there is nothing
stopping CEIR from doing it exactly that: registering only its
preferred voters.

If that sounds far-fetched, consider that in 2020 alone, the left-wing
groups funneled $434 million through a vast array of tax-exempt
nonprofits, such as Stacey Abrams’ Fair Fight in Georgia, that do
nothing but register new Democrats. Virtually all of that money came
from the Tides, Ford, Open Society, Wyss, and Buffett Foundations,
among other donors supposedly engaged in charity.

These organizations would be near-worthless without EBU data, which is
only available through ERIC. So where do they acquire it? The smart
money would pin it on Becker’s CEIR.

CEIR operates virtually in the dark with little scrutiny from the
“progressive” press, who are less interested in covering CEIR’s
misdeeds than covering for them. Contrast that with the work of
investigative reporters like Todd Shepherd of the right-leaning outlet
Broad + Liberty. He recently reported that Pennsylvania transferred
partial data profiles of hundreds of thousands of EBUs to CEIR in
2020. That information would have proved invaluable to partisan groups
active in Pennsylvania that year. Yet CEIR refuses to say what it did
with the trove of voter data.

But CEIR’s founding documents give us every reason to believe this is
precisely what it’s doing. It’s up to Becker and Co. to convince the
public that it isn’t misusing this priceless data, despite having the
means, motive, and opportunity to do so.
A Right-Wing Wrecking Ball

So what can conservatives do to level the playing field?

A good axiom in warfare applies here: Turn your enemy’s strength into
his greatest weakness.

Japan famously turned many Pacific islands into impenetrable
fortresses in World War II and dared U.S. forces to attack them.
Instead, we sailed around them to take weaker targets and let the
garrisons starve. After Rome’s devastating defeat at the hands of
Hannibal’s mighty army in the Second Punic War, Rome divided its
legions into smaller forces to cover more ground. Like wolves wearing
out a bear, they could be everywhere while the Carthaginians could
not. Hannibal lost.

Likewise, we won’t defeat this powerful cabal in a single battle, but
by nibbling it to death. The House should demand to know why the IRS
refuses to strip these groups of their tax exemption for trespassing
the law on biased voter registration campaigns. Conservative
legislatures ought to hold hearings on out-of-state nonprofits running
partisan registration drives in their jurisdiction. The states can
tighten rules about who gets to register voters the same way they
restrict ballot harvesting—either restricting it to family members or
banning it altogether. Where there’s room for abuse, the Left will
abuse the law.

Watchdogs and citizens can and should file complaints with the IRS and
FEC against these groups. Conservatives are used to being attacked for
their political views; very few leftists have ever faced the same kind
of scrutiny. They can also demand 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) groups’ annual
Form 990 disclosures, which reveal how much they took in and spent.
(Here is a template and some guidelines.)

To date, nine states—Ohio, Florida, Missouri, West Virginia,
Louisiana, Texas, Iowa, Alabama, and Alaska—have left or are about to
leave ERIC. Their leaders know that they don’t need ERIC to maintain
good voter rolls because they already have the tools necessary for the
job.

That leaves Arizona, Georgia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, South Carolina,
Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin for election integrity advocates to
address.

The good news? In almost all cases, the decision to leave ERIC is
entirely within the purview of the governor and secretary of state.
Red states with a blue governor can look to the others on this list
for legislation to leave ERIC without the governor’s consent.

Every one of these states to depart is one less state transmitting EBU
data to the Left’s registration machine.
