California driver’s license applicants are automatically registered to vote.
This is from Snopes;
The law requires that applicants under the Motor Voter Act attest that they meet all voter registration requirements, but critics maintain that the law “ lacks the necessary safeguards to keep noncitizens off the voter rolls.” Although those critics fear that undocumented residents may slip through the loopholes and becomes registered to vote, it’s not accurate to say that California has made it “legal” for undocumented residents to vote.
Potential voters “have to demonstrate proof of age, the vast majority of time people are showing a birth certificate or a passport, which also reflects citizenship. That’s arguably more secure than someone checking a box under penalty of perjury,” Padilla said.
Why not make that a requirement? If it’s the “vast majority”, that means that it isn’t always…thus…what I said is accurate.
