    Using Social Security Data incorrectly

    Indiana is counted among the states that are using Social Security Data incorrectly.

    We think this is a shame and an abuse of our clients social security information.  The New York Times reports that  Indiana, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio are improperly using Social Security data to verify registration applications for new voters.

    In addition to these six swing states, three more states appear to be violating federal law. Alabama and Georgia seem to be improperly using Social Security information to screen registration applications from new voters. And Louisiana appears to have removed thousands of voters after the federal deadline for taking such action.

    Under federal law, election officials are supposed to use the Social Security database to check a registration application only as a last resort, if no record of the applicant is found on state databases, like those for driver’s licenses or identification cards.

    This precondition exists because using the federal database is not as reliable than each state’s lists, and is more likely to incorrectly flag applications as invalid. Unfortunately, many state officials seem to be using the Social Security lists first.
