Should the U.S. automatically register every eligible citizen to vote?
Under automatic voter registration, eligible citizens are signed up to vote when they deal with agencies like the DMV unless they choose to opt out.

Votes cast anywhere this poll is embedded count toward the same live total.
Registration to vote, yes. I think motivation to actually vote should come from within. More engaged, informed voters is the goal, not just total voters.
Automatic registration trades voter rolls' accuracy for turnout, some states already merge DMV data to do it. If you clicked "no," is it the government overreach part or the error-rate part that bugs you?
