The government uses income tax returns (there is a box on the returns that you check),and other government agencies to update the register. About a month before the election a couple of elderly people knock on your door and ask if everyone over 18 at this address is on the Register. They also ask if you know of anyone who might not be on the Register.
I wonder why you guys in the US have to register?
