    It’s like that in other states. You get or renew your license/ID and part of that form is voting registration.

      The main difference is opt in vs opt out. Still not the same as automatic registration

      In Canada, there’s a box you can tick on your taxes to pass along your info to Elections Canada. Not sure how hard this would be to implement as well.

        The trick is getting the fourth line to connect with the first line

          I don’t follow. What do you mean by “fourth line” and “first line”?

            They were being a wiseass about literally adding a box to the form rather than the work it would take to include voter registration in the process.
