I went to request my primary ballot, as an independent I get to chose which primary I want to participate in, and when I went to request it I found out I had been removed from the registered voter list and removed from the mail in voter list, so I had to re-register, which I was able to do online. But I had no warning I had been removed from the lists, if I hadn't been actively looking into it, I would have missed the primary and who knows if I would have noticed before the general election... Been voting for years (both in person, and the last few years by mail), had the same address for over a decade now, and someone decided to just silently remove me from the system. So I'd definitely recommend people make sure they didn't have their voter registrations mysteriously vanish from the system too.
