You are right again, Lynn, about identifying eligible voters.  And, about 
absentee ballots.  If I were to move , I would have to update my registration 
to receive the next ballot in the mail.  And, every 2 years, like this year, 
we have to sign and mail back in something to the sec. of state, I guess to 
verify that I still live here.

I don't, personally, see that it is a big deal for someone to have to go into 
a gov't office , once, to register to vote.  People do it for driver's 
license, fishing and hunting licenses, and they do it to receive monetary and 
other social benefits.  I think same - day registration can too easily lead 
to fraud.  I don't like the pushy motor-voter stuff, either.
