1. Registration and enrollment. A township resident may register and enroll in any town within his the resident's representative district or, if he the resident lives in a portion of a township not easily accessible to a town within his the resident's representative district, he the resident may register and enroll in a more convenient town within or outside the county. He may register and enroll on election day. The registrar may accept the resident's enrollment on election day but may not accept the resident's registration on election day. The registrar shall place the letter "T" beside the voter's resident's name on the voting list and on the general register.
