Gov Glenn Youngkin vetoed Democratic legislation that would have reenrolled Virginia in the corrupt ERIC system that allows Democrats to manufacture countless ballots in order to rig elections. Wisconsin is a prime example. ERIC listed 7.06 million registered voters in a state with 3.6 million eligible voters. That is why Democrats have been able to win so many elections in a swing state. Since the ERIC system has been exposed as corrupt, about 1/3 of the states using that system has dropped them like a bad habit.
It was later discovered that ERIC founder David Becker was sharing ERIC content in 2020 with leftist groups during the presidential election. Why is that so important? Because if Democrats know who does not vote, died or moved out of state, they know whose name to submit manufactured ballots in. That is called returning elections to the voters. And how do we know Democrats do this? Not one blue state has dropped out of ERIC.

SENATE BILL NO. 606Pursuant to Article V, Section 6, of the Constitution of Virginia, I veto Senate Bill 606, which requires the Commissioner of Elections to apply for, enter into, and maintain membership in the Electronic Registration Information Center.
The decision for the Commonwealth to exit the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) in 2023 was a result of persistent management issues, improper data use, escalating costs, and the inability to meet statutory requirements for border state information sharing.
ERIC’s reluctance to implement reforms and address a bipartisan working group of member states concerns reflects a departure from its core mission of improving voter roll accuracy, which called into question Virginia’s continued participation.
This is particularly concerning due to the controversy surrounding ERIC’s sharing of personal information with external organizations. These organizations are funded by sources that the General Assembly has on a bipartisan basis prohibited Virginia’s election officials from accepting.
The financial burden of rejoining ERIC includes membership fees, which have increased more than 115% since 2022, and participation expenses. ERIC’s mandatory Eligible but Unregistered mailing will cost the Commonwealth hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is superfluous considering Virginia’s Department of Motor Vehicles’ automatic registration policies and sameday registration for voting.
Since leaving ERIC, Virginia established data-sharing agreements with numerous states incurring no additional costs. Additionally, the Department of Elections has increased its data sources by collaborating with forty-one states to obtain driver’s license surrender data, while ERIC only provides data sharing with twenty-five states.
I have been explicitly clear about my affirmation of the legitimacy of our elections. My focus is safeguarding Virginians’ private information and continuously improving an efficient, costeffective voter registration system.
Accordingly, I veto the bill.
