I’ve in favor of every state sending a voting package automatically to everyone who is a US citizen which includes voter registration forms and a ballot and a return envelope that self seals, no licking. Send out six weeks before election. Cutoff return date three weeks before election date. Announce results on election date. I’d have no prepaid returns, voters add their own return stamps. Eliminate voting in person. Work on an online OPTION elections.
I think everyone should automatically get a complete mail voting and registration package in one shot and not just those who specifically request it. The onus on filling out the paperwork and sending it back is on the citizen. Doesn’t seem like a huge burden for citizens.

It works in Oregon, except your vote counts as long as it’s received by Election Day. If you don’t want to mail it, you can drop it off at the registrar.
I’m a big fan of vote by mail. Internet voting is problematic because it could be hacked. The current census is by internet, so we’ll see how that goes.
