Yes I understand that. I registered to vote and every year my state sent me a ballot, solicited once, unsolicited at all other times. Plus, why should you have to remind the government every year that you want to vote? Do you renew your driver’s license every year or re-register for the selective service?

I say add a line to state tax forms that asks where you want your ballot mailed and have it auto-register for voting. Then we have driver’s license and tax payers mostly registered in states that have income tax. Then fix the problems affecting homeless, jobless, foster kids or people without cars.
