Does anyone know what the "Center for Voter Information" is? [View all]

[QED]

I just got a mailing from them titled "Voting Report Card for me"- it has my voting record for the last 4 general elections. It's just that I voted, not how.

It also has the name and address of two of my neighbors and their record - except their names and street numbers are blacked out.

"Public records indicate that you are eligible to vote in 2018. Who you vote for is private, but whether or not you vote is public record.

We're sending this mailing to you and your neighbors to share who does and does not vote in an effort to promote election participation. While we have hidden the name and street number of your neighbors to protect their privacy, there are their true voting records.

We will be reviewing these records after the election to determine whether or not you joined your neighbors in voting. We may call you to ask about your voting experience and will update this chart for the next elections. If you do not vote this year, while we will be disappointed, we'll be interested to hear why not."

I don't recall ever receiving something like this before. It's just kind of weird - and meaningless.
