An election judge is not required to look up all that. They ask for a voter
registration card. If you don't have one, they can use a driver's license
to look you up. If you are not registered, you can't vote. If you move
and don't tell them, they won't know about it. If you live near a state
line, and recently moved, it is easy to vote where you used to live, then
go home and vote again where you are supposed to vote in the first place.
You will probably get away with it. You will have to lie when asked if you
are registered somewhere else. Republicans are good liars. This is how the
republicans came up with the slogan, "vote early, vote often." A republican
friend of mine told me how they did that when the democrats were voting
for their deceased relatives. They thought that was legal since the
relative only died a few months ago and they knew how the relative was
going to vote. It was another republican who told them that it was legal to
vote for your great grandfather.
See how they are?
