Warning: you will get texted so use your disposal number.

With all the news about citizens discovering their voter status has been lapsed, and new rules for being a voter, everyone should check.

But also, sometimes you forget. I have new neighbors who finished moving a month ago, and when I asked if they changed their mailing address and checked their voting status, we discovered they weren’t.

    The USian system is so bizarre.

    Here in Brazil everybody HAS to register when turning 18. The registration can get suspended if you miss an election without justification, but you get a fine for each time.

    Voting is not a right, it’s a duty.

      Absolutely!

      It’s in the core fabric of the American system. Yet some conspiracy theory has made voting and the right to vote a difficult process.

      In some countries, you get a fine for failure to vote, and voting day is a mandatory paid day off of work. I wish the US would do that.

        Here voting is always on a Sunday, and for those that work Sundays, the employer has to arrange so that they have time to go vote.
