Final answer:

The DMV updates vehicle registration and, if applicable, also updates voter registration addresses, or provides forms for new voter registration.

Step-by-step explanation:

Upon receipt of the application for motor vehicle registration, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will process the application, updating its records to reflect the new information provided. If the registration process includes an address change and the individual has moved but is still within the same county, the DMV will also update the voting address as part of this procedure. In case the move is to a new county, or if the individual is not registered to vote, they must complete a new voter registration. The DMV provides the necessary forms for this, and most states offer the opportunity to register to vote at the time of applying for or renewing a driver's license, thanks to the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, commonly known as 'the Motor Voter Act'.
