In some states, voter registration deadlines have already passed, but nearly half the states plus the District of Columbia allow same-day registration on Election Day for those who still want to register and vote.
In recent years, many states have offered multiple ways for people to register to vote or update their registration, to make the process simpler and more convenient.
