You can be experiencing homelessness and still meet these requirements.

Are 18 years old on or before Election Day
In almost every state, you can register to vote before you turn 18 if you will be 18 by Election Day.
Are registered to vote by your state’s voter registration deadline. North Dakota does not require voter registration.

Who cannot vote?
Non-citizens, including permanent legal residents, cannot vote in federal, state, and most local elections.

Some people cannot vote after being convicted of a felony or if they are currently serving time for other types of crimes. Rules are different in each state. Check this guide from the Department of Justice to understand the laws in your state.

Some people who have a mental disability may not be able to vote. Learn about your voting rights. Rules vary by state.

Those are the rules for the law abiding citizens. The gov’t itself won’t hold to these standards. In NYS, illegals can get drivers licenses—> motor/voter.

By definition, illegals don't respect or follow the law...

And democrat don't care because illegals help THEM get elected AND democrats know their butt boys and bimbos in the press won't out them - because the press is as corrupt as they are...>{? So where does that leave us?

Maybe paid ads about jail sentences and deportation FOREVER if illegals break election laws.
