If it's your very first time voting, the entire process can seem a bit confusing. What do you mean, you have to register to vote? You can't just show up? There's a deadline?

What's even more confusing is that each state has a different deadline for voter registration, meaning some states allow voters to register up until election day, while others only allow new voters until the beginning of October. Pretty crazy, right?
