A dead dog and dead humans were among those who were mailed voter registration solicitations in Georgia, said Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who is opening an investigation.

"You do realize Sheba is my dead dog," one of the mailers shared with Raffensperger's office said.

Ready to Register is part of an investigation into third-party companies that send voter registration solicitations through the mail, according to Raffensperger.

Ready to Register identifies itself as a "nonprofit social welfare organization dedicated to encouraging civic participation through voter registration." The website has a form that says "register to vote" at the bottom.

"We will email you the pre-filled voter registration form, and you will review the form for accuracy, fill in any state-specific information that is required and mail the form to your local elections authority," the website says.

The Center Square reached out via email on the website, but did not receive a response before publication.

"Groups like this highlight the unreliability of commercial data," Raffensperger said. "These outside organizations don't use those standards. Instead, they flood mailboxes with inaccurate solicitations that confuse voters and waste election officials' time."

Voters in North Carolina were also warned about Ready to Register after forms were sent to dead people in that state, according to Raffensperger.

"Whether intentional or simply reckless, these mail campaigns operate like a grift- raising money and generating activity while shifting the costs onto taxpayers, election officials, and voters," Raffensperger said. "Georgia taxpayers should not have to clean up the mess created by organizations that prioritize volume over accuracy."
