Pennsylvania Implements Automatic Voter Registration Ahead of 2024 Election

Pennsylvania has rolled out automatic voter registration for citizens getting new driver's licenses or ID cards.
The automated system registers voters by default unless they opt out.
PA is the 24th state to enact automatic registration, which proponents say expands access and improves election security.
Some Republicans criticized the move, worrying it bypasses legislative approval and could lead to voter fraud.
Studies show automatic registration boosts voter rolls but has mixed impacts on turnout.
