Just to be clear, efforts to clean up registrations and the rest are fantastic. If the states used this outfit, I'd support them 100%. According to AJ, in Washington ERIC got a list of suspected problem registrations of 37,000 compared to more than 370,000 for the Cross Check. It's probably because ERIC requires hits on things other than first and last name and therefore generates likely GOOD names and not garbage.
It's also notable that participants in ERIC have to pledge to use the list to ADD people to the registration rolls, after notifying them, etc. So the process isn't a one way - kick as many off as possible - exercise. It includes INCREASING the number of registered voters.

And states can't use both because.....
Why do you have your panties in a wad because there exists a more encompassing first pass filter of data for states to use?
