lol I know I dont have to technicaly be registered to vote, but during some elections reps will drop by the houses and ask how many people in the house are elgiable tovote, they get their names and give them a little ticket thing that siad when and where to vote, thats not for voting in general though, just for some elections to help keep things organized, so that is what I think of by being "registered" to vote. I could not have voted in the last election anyhow as I have no ID lol I was lucky to even get my cell phone with only a credit card and social insurence number.
