I find it interesting that registration even matters for this purpose.
In Washington, the state constitution requires that the Voters' Pamphlet
be delivered to every place of residence in the state.  Registration
lists are not used for this purpose.

Subject: Re: voter pamphlets as a source of election information


The voter pamphlet is always put on the internet by
the California Secretary of State, so it doesn't
follow that only people who have been registered to
vote for a few weeks before the election can see it. 
As a greater and greater share of the population uses
the web for information, it may be that the need to
postally mail a voter pamphlet to every household will
diminish.  What is needed is more publicity for the
web site that holds the voter pamphlet.
