It’s since the elections are state run, so there’s no central db. Once you register though your electoral experience is a state by state crapshoot.

Some will make you stand in line for hours forcing you to miss work, others do mail-in ballots with early voting which is kind of awesome.

Wild idea, states should have a central database of the people permanently living there. The fact that they don't seem to have one is baffling to me.
