Do you think voter registration and participation numbers are skewed by people not being unregistered when they move across states and register somewhere new? If so, how much of an impact does this have?

Thanks! I asked because I assumed when I registered in a new state it unregistered me in my home state, but I don’t think that is the case. I think I need to pursue unregistering in my home state. Could this potentially affect the validity of my ballot in my new state even if I only cast a vote here?

As a follow up, are there ways to automatically block people from voting in two states if registered in two states? I know it’s illegal and holds consequences if caught, I’m just curious about how the system actually works logistically.
