This is a regular feature of data-matching, especially when done in a half-assed way. The purpose is to create the false claims of fraud. For example, Republicans complained for years about the risk of double voting. A credible system was built to detect it (ERIC). Then they killed it.
![ERIC had been relatively uncontroversial since its creation. The idea behind it started in 2008, when election officials identified the potential for people to have multiple registrations in different states — in itself not surprising in a country that is at once highly mobile but operates a decentralized voting system — creating the potential for voting in different states. ERIC offered a tool that could track that problem, through a mixture of data sourcing and analytical tools that minimized false positives. By identifying moves and deaths, it allowed states to keep the voting rolls accurate. In 2013 it had seven members, which would increase to 32 states at its height.
Then in January of 2022, the Louisiana Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin dropped out of ERIC. He made his announcement to a group of far right election activists, to sustained applause. But for other election officials it was a puzzle. One state election official who worked for GOP secretaries of state said:
Everybody looked at this and said, 'This is insane, what are you talking about?' As soon as [Ardoin] did that — that created this pressure on the other Republican states that wasn't there before](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2rrp7amblhg3xoly5n5huiqv/bafkreigihnsv4wsriiurs7maewx4ie3qsji36tqg4oytoc4annoa54nw2m)

Hey my fellow North Carolinians, while we have a chance to elect Roy Cooper to the Senate there is so more on the ballot that needs your attention. First off please also vote for Justice Anita Earls so we can keep her seat on the Supreme Court and also vote NO on the amendments. Here’s why!👇👇

Gosh, if only there were some kind of professional organization for White House journalists that existed to advocate for the First Amendment and defend the freedom of the press. They could organize together as a united front against Trump's censorship. That would be something.
