Y'all knew it had to appear sometime.

I think you kind of beat out my dual electoral reform amendment and statute in terms of legislation size.

Ah, the good old days, back when we thought that would actually fix the electoral system.

Proposed Constitutional Amendment:

Article V, Section 2, Clause 4 shall be changed to read:

In order to vote or be a candidate in an election, a person must have been a registered voter on the tenth day before that election. If a voter changes their state of registration in the ten days before the election, the state from which they were originally registered shall be the state from which their vote is cast.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------     

This should fix the issue of people moving around close to elections and where they can vote.

Oh, right, a title...I didn't really think it needed one, but...
