This how we do it where I live in Tennessee,
1) You go to your precinct and present a valid photo ID. You are asked if you still live at the address on the ID. If yes, proceed to the desk.
2) The desk is alphabetical, get in line and then fill out a small piece of paper with your name, address, and sign it. It’s a legal affidavit with a number on it. The worker at the table checks the signature on the affidavit and on the ID.
3) The worker then looks into the book with all of this same voter information in it and writes down the number on the affidavit form, signs it and notes the information of state districts you are in. This book now has a copy of your signature. You sign again in the book and they check them again.
4) Wait in line, hand the voting booth worker you affidavit and they put in the cartridge to the machine, pick your elections and you vote.
I was in and out in 15 minutes at 10 am on election day.
Tennessee is a Republican State. Republicans value honesty. Dems value winning by any means possible.
