West Virginia’s top elections official praised Virginia’s decision to exit the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) voter roll maintenance service after Democrats criticized Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin for the move, accusing Republicans of voter suppression.

West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner, general counsel Donald “Deak” Kersey, and Chuck Flannery, Warner’s deputy secretary and chief of staff, participated in a May 15 webinar hosted by the Virginia-based Middle Resolution Policy Foundation.
