    Yes, you have to be registered to vote in the US. It’s typically an easy process, although some areas do try to complicate it to limit one side or the other.

    I believe there is a process that allows someone to vote if they don’t have an ID, but it does involve verification. Contrary to what some extremists would tell you, It’s not like anyone can just walk up and vote a bunch of times. The voters and votes are verified at multiple points along the way.

    States govern the election process, so the details are going to vary but that’s all true for the couple states I’ve voted in during my lifetime.
