| Dogs Rule said: Do Americans have a procedure by which they can just show up and be registered on the spot on voting day simply by presenting a government issued photo-id and proof of 6 month or more of residency and then being sworn in? |
As per Article I, Section IV, Clause I of the US Constitution, it depends entirely on which state you live in. Most states require you to register 25-30 days before the election. Others do not have such strict requirements. Hew Hampshire allows election day registration and North Dokota does not require you to register to vote.
