ERIC Must Make Reforms

Never heard of ERIC? It is an acronym, not a person, that stands for the Electronic Registration Information Center. ERIC is a program that allows states to find the names of individuals registered to vote in other states. Currently, it is the only program set up that has the ability to do this. Heritage Foundation Senior Legal Fellow, Hans von Spakovksy joins the show to discuss what ERIC does, problems with the organization, and reforms it needs to make. PILF President, J. Christian Adams and Hans von Spakovsky wrote a report breaking down a list of reforms ERIC needs to make. Read the full report here.

Tied Elections

Ever wonder what happens when an election ends in a tie? Clara Belle Wheeler, a PILF Board member and Vice Chairman of Albemarle County Electoral Board, joins our podcast to discuss her experience participating in a lottery to decide the winner of a tied election that would decide which political party would control the Virginia House of Delegates. The Public Interest Legal Foundation has launched a tied elections database that logs elections that have ended in ties or been decided by one vote. Together these more than 700 elections show that one illegal vote can affect the outcome of an election.
