DeSantis Refuses to Remove Harmful Soros-Funded “ERIC” Voter Roll Software in Florida

I think it should go without saying – there should be no “Soros-funded” anything near our elections, ever. Now, I know they won’t stop using that junk in blue states, but why in the name of everything holy would we be using this garbage in red states? Especially a red state like Florida? That’s a question a lot of people have, after DeSantis is refusing to ditch the Soros-funded “ERIC” voter roll software that many call “harmful” and “manipulative.”

Gee, imagine that, right?

Big League Politics reported that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis likes to posture as if his state is on the cutting edge within the Republican Party of setting policy to implement conservatism and beat back liberalism.

However, on the issue of election integrity, DeSantis’ record is questionable, particularly considering his administration’s embrace of the far-left Soros-funded Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC).

The American Policy Center (APC) has revealed that the DeSantis’ administration is laughing off concerns from election integrity activists about the ERIC system, which has been shown to inflate and misrepresent voter rolls in order to bolster Democrat political machines.

According to the APC report, Florida secretary of state Cord Byrd told election integrity activists during a private meeting that “Florida loves ERIC,” and their concerns could be discounted because they use ERIC “a little differently” than other states. Research by the Florida Republican Assembly and The People’s Audit, two prominent election integrity organizations in Florida, have shown that the administration of ERIC in Florida is no less harmful than its usage anywhere else.

They found over a half million bad or “undeliverable” addresses that were on the voter rolls due to ERIC’s malfeasance. Additionally, it was found that the bad addresses on the rolls caused the undeliverable mail to pile up in unsecured storage facilities, opening up additional avenues for voter fraud and wasting taxpayer money.

Red states, most recently Louisiana and Alabama, have dumped ERIC or are in the process of doing so. Florida under DeSantis, on the other hand, is doubling down on the shady system. Could this be due to Hubris, incompetence or is there a more nefarious motive behind the seemingly incomprehensible behavior of the DeSantis administration?

Iconic political operative and journalist Roger Stone reported on how DeSantis hired a far-left demagogue to lead Florida’s State Department of Motor Vehicles, giving this hostile interloper access to sensitive voter data.

There’s no excuse for this. We need to get Soros out of our government, politics, and especially out of our elections.
