Last month, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen stood at a podium at the state capitol in Montgomery and announced what he called a novel way for his state to keep its voter lists up to date.
The program, called AVID or the Alabama Voter Integrity Database, will use federal data, as well as voting lists from five other states, to monitor when voters move, die or illegally vote in two different states in the same election.
"We are the first state in the nation to implement a system like this," he said.
But his claim is missing a lot of context.

One thing the left never answers is why California and New York aren't part of ERIC. If it's such a great system and has no down-sides what-so-ever, why in the last 11 years it's been stood-up haven't those two bastions of leftist ideology joined?
According to the left they must have been swayed by conspiracy theories because there is no reason for them not be be part of ERIC .. and they've had 11 years to join.

Best laugh all day:
"These states have decided that instead of using a wheel, they're going to invent a spherical device that will allow them to easily transport and roll items from A to B,"
