And even if they don't voter registration almost always requires a real physical address, and is often a public record. So victims of domestic violence, stalking etc are incentivized not to register to vote.
- sneak 7y agoThere is a program in some states that allows you a confidential state-run mail forwarding address for this purpose. You can then use it at the DMV and your state-run forwarding address gets leaked via public records. Unfortunately, it requires that one ask permission to use the program and justify their request for privacy; apparently those that don’t have permanent documentation of their death threats are less entitled to privacy and safety. The state as fail-deadly arbiter of privacy is an entirely abhorrent situation.
