Description

The Electronic Registration Information Center also known as ERIC, is a multi state effort to fight voter fraud. The system was a rare bipartisan success story, until it was targeted by a far right campaign to dismantle it. The first state to opt out: Louisiana

NPR’s Miles Parks traveled to Louisiana to learn how this once beloved tool against voter fraud fell victim to conspiracies. Today, we will hear part 1 of his investigation.
