Be certain you are still registered! Florida cancelled me (years ago) because I hadnāt voted in a certain time frame.

Not calling you out because Iāve been guilty of this before, but this is a great reason to vote in every election, local all the way up to presidential!
Not only will your vote have more impact in local elections (due to even worse turnout), but you know you wonāt be unfairly purged from voter rolls. Probablyā¦
Also local governments have a greater impact on your day to day life.
The cancel culture we should be worried about
North Carolina here. Voter registration is done automatically when you renew your vehicle registration.
Thatās some hippie bullshit. You should have to stand in line for 8 hours just to get told ācome back next Wednesdayā like a real American.

I get texts and emails about the comings and goings of my ballots as it makes its way via usps. I canāt even remember when the last time I had to make sure I was registered. But like you I think it was when I got my plates, or maybe my drivers license. Colorado is far ahead of its timeā¦ like they WANT me to vote with minimum effort.
Washington State here. The option to get a text when your ballot is returned and then accepted is fantastic
