1. And "four years" is confusing to me - what if election day is later this year than 4 years ago?

And while I'm at it, why not have the words be "4 years and 1 month" or somesuch instead of "4 years"? With 4 years, there is confusion (to me anyway) about what happens if election day is later in November this year than it was 4 years ago? Like if election day falls on Nov 8 this year, but 4 year ago it fell on Nov 3, then I would have to reregister because its 4 years and 5 days.

But if election day falls on November 3 this year, but 4 years ago it fell on Nov 8, then no sweat?

Or am I just being a bean head?
