Voter registration is open to people 18 years or older, citizens, and have an address. The purpose of it is to ensure the voting process is legal and that people who don't fit the guidelines/laws allowing them to vote don't vote. When you vote you sign a book next to your name and show ID to prove you are who you are. This also prevents someone from voter fraud or voting twice. The whole process ensures the elected people and the voters that the process is valid and true.

3. are legally able to vote (have legal citizenship, are not felons)

Firearm registration is a form of gun control. Liberals tend to think that making it difficult to purchase a firearm, they will keep guns out of the hands of criminals.
