Many states have time limits; no reg in by x date, no vote.
Provisional ballots are frequently not counted, and are more easily disputed.
Keep in mind too that most states have partisan appointees or other partisan officials in charge of election processes. Katherine Harris anyone?
All of this together amounts to massive disenfranchising, usually of the poor, frequently of soldiers. They've been convicted of it before, and have been doing it again.
