KEY BLOCK----- John, What itch do you think we need to scratch? The risk reward here is not in our favor. This issue in any form, is hardly front and center in the lives and minds of voters and on the other side any perception of focusing on an issue that could be viewed as playing to a political audience would be problematic. There are 180 million people registered to vote. I just don't think they're going to view registering to vote as so difficult. Am I missing something here?

I think what starts out as support is very susceptible to attack and most importantly, unless we are prepared to get embroiled in a "process fight" I would not make this a focus. And no matter how central voting is to our democracy, how we do it is more likely to devolve into process. I do think we should explore ways to Co-opt GOP's argument for photo ID which has enormous appeal. Even among some Dem voters. We should think of high tech solutions ( ie everyone is issued a voter card with a chip when they turn 18) that embrace som form of universal citizen I'd linked to automatic registration. Sent from my iPad On Feb 3, 2015, at 5:32 PM, Dan Schwerin <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: If folks are interested, here’s a write-up we had done on modernizing the registration system… Modernize Voter Registration Experts agree that the single biggest barrier to voting is a shoddy voter registration system. Researchers at Harvard and MIT found that in both 2008 and 2012, millions of Americans tried to but were unable to vote because of problems relating to voter registration, and millions more thwarted by registration deadlines and residency requirements. The non-partisan Election Protection voter hotline consistently reports voter registration problems as the most prevalent. Moving toward more universal voter registration has the potential not only to resolve persistent barriers that thwart voters but also to significantly expand the electorate. According to Census data, more than one in four voting-eligible Americans—more than 50 million people—are not registered to vote. Among those who are registered, roughly 70% vote in midterm and 85-90% in presidential elections. (Overall eligible citizen turnout rates are 40% in midterms and 60% in presidential elections.) Modernizing the voter registration system could add up to 50 million unregistered citizens to the rolls, cheaply, conveniently, and accurately. Once a citizen is registered, she can be courted and mobilized to vote. All that is required is a simple shift in paradigm to one in which the government takes responsibility to ensure that the voter rolls are complete and accurate, drawing on modern database technology and government agency contacts. Under a modern voter registration system, every eligible citizen who consents would be seamlessly registered to vote whenever interacting with a government agency and her information would be securely transmitted electronically to election officials; her registration record would be automatically kept up to date and would move with her; and she would have failsafe opportunities to register to vote or to update her registration both online and at the polls on Election Day. Each of these policy components is currently in place and working successfully in multiple states, but no state has them all. Research by the Brennan Center and other institutions show that these reforms increase voter registration rates, improve list accuracy, and save millions. Legislation: The Voter Empowerment Act (Reps. Lewis, Hoyer, Clyburn, Conyers, and Brady, H.R. 12, and Sen. Gillibrand, S.123) is a broad Democratic voting reform bill introduced in 2012 and 2013 that had voter registration modernization as its centerpiece. This bill was not reintroduced in 2014. Sen. Gillibrand, and previously Rep. Lofgren, also introduced the Voter Registration Modernization Act (S. 2865) focusing exclusively on online registration. Political considerations: As noted, the public broadly supports modernizing voter registration and bringing our antiquated paper-based system into the 21st century. Portable registration in particular has overwhelming support. Voter registration modernization also has strong bipartisan support in the states (though not in Congress), especially among election officials. The bipartisan Presidential Commission on Election Administration especially endorsed two components of the reform—online voter registration and electronic registration at the DMV and possibly other government agencies as well. The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights has consistently included voter registration modernization among its top three voting priorities since 2010. And privacy advocates have signed off on voter registration modernization proposals so long as they have certain safeguards built in.
