Edit/Update: It turns out that my last name has a capitol letter in the middle and they put a space in it. Thank god. I can actually vote this year.

    It’s wild.

    There are some local and state governments trying to pass automatic voter registration, but it’s an uphill battle, not unlike most things that would generally benefit the public good in this country.

      Even in California, we got automatic voter registration passed the legislature, only for the governor to veto it.

      Just wild that something so fundamental to a functioning democracy is so divisive.

        functioning democracy

        That’s exactly why it’s divisive. They don’t want a functioning democracy.
