Simple. In NY, if you show up to vote and they don't have your name on the rolls, they simply hand you a write-in ballot. They do not ask for any proof of identity.

You could literally walk into any polling place in the state, tell them, "My name is Mickey Mouse and I'm supposed to vote here," and they are NOT ALLOWED to question you. You will receive a write-in ballot, a pencil, and instructions on how to fill it out. Once you have done so, you can go on your merry way.

Say it isn't so! In New York you just show up and you can vote? No registration? How has this been allowed?
