Why are Michigan's voter rolls so bloated? Going into the 2024 election, Michigan had 500,000 more registered voters than we have voting age adults. Michigan is a slow or no-growth state of 10 million people. So how did Jocelyn Benson find 750,000 new voters just between July and October? Shout out to Anna Hoffman for that report, by the way. Well, she's done it before. This might be a case of history repeating. You remember Eric, the Electronic Registration Information Center, officially states join Eric to compare their voter rolls and eliminate duplicates. In reality, Eric finds eligible but unregistered adults in each state, and member states are required to reach out to them. We've sent Jocelyn Benson foyers for the eligible but unregistered reports that Eric sent to Michigan. Despite calling herself the transparency candidate, Benson has denied them. In September 2020, using Eric data, Benson sent postcards to 700,000 eligible but unregistered adults in Michigan. That was almost 10% of their vote tally in a high turnout election. In four months of 2025, Benson has added almost 10% of new people to our already fat voter rolls. Michigan is shrinking, but Jocelyn Benson's voter rolls keep growing. Maybe she should have led the population study. The purpose of a system is what it does. If doesn't trim voter rolls, it helps inflate them. Until the ecosystem for voter fraud is killed off, the potential for stuffed ballot boxes will hang over the Michigan governor's race like a dark cloud.
