That last bullet point is how it's worked for as long as I've been registered to vote (decades). If you don't vote in the presidential general election, they assume you've moved/died/been abducted by aliens and cancel your voter registration in the county that you didn't vote in.
But that's the case regardless of whether they think you've moved or not. So that makes this whole thing suspicious.
I would suggest making sure that the address on the card they want you to return with your personal details is actually the voter registration office, and not that of some shady group trying to trick you into giving them your personal information for some other nefarious purpose.
My thoughts exactly. But I called the Secretary of state's office and verified that this was their mailing. The whole thing looked janky, but Alabama's stuff looks janky anyway like you did it on your home computer with an HP inkjet.
I've had people double take at my name change paperwork because it's off-center and somehow looks worse than your average HP inkjet. I just shrug and say "Florida" and it's never been a problem because Florida is also a failed state, lol.
