'Our democracy is at its most vulnerable in decades.'
The closest thing to true AVR is what is known as the “back-end” system, where individuals are automatically registered after a DMV visit and have the choice to opt-out later. This contrasts with the “opt-in” system, where would-be voters are asked on a DMV screen if they’d like to register. Unsurprisingly, the latter often leads to would-be voters reflexively declining to do so.
States must also fight against partisan gerrymandering. In the United States, it is a national disgrace that elected leaders are able to effectively “pick their voters” through favorably gerrymandering schemes. In recent years, instances of gerrymandering in the U.S. have soared nationwide. In the 2020 redistricting cycle, both parties resorted to intensely gerrymandering states where they controlled redistricting in order to stave off gerrymander losses elsewhere.
