Mullin Asks Blanche to Probe Election Group’s Access to Driver Records

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has asked Attorney General Todd Blanche to investigate whether a group that contracts with states to manage election data improperly obtained and shared sensitive state motor vehicle records.

The letter also links the Electronic Registration Information Center, better known as ERIC, with data later provided to a nonprofit that received more than $70 million from Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan for the 2020 election.

In a Wednesday letter to Blanche, Mullin said the Department of Homeland Security had previously referred the matter to the Justice Department and urged the newly confirmed attorney general to review the potential violations of federal privacy law.

The secretary’s referral focuses on ERIC’s collection of state voter registration and motor vehicle data and the use of that information to identify people who were eligible to vote but had not registered, also referred to as “EBU.”

Mullin said the Department of Homeland Security had flagged potential violations of the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act, a federal law governing the disclosure and use of personal information maintained by state motor vehicle agencies.

“ERIC exposes millions of citizens’ sensitive private data to unknown contractors, subcontractors, and agents of ERIC, potentially in violation of the DPPA,” Mullin wrote.
