Up until Jan. 22 if people missed registration they can go to their election offices and register and vote at the same time then as part of something called "grace period" voting. They can't register now and then go to the polls on Feb. 5 but their votes will still count.

Not sure about other states.

Just as people, particularly young voters, are beginning to pay attention to the presidential race, 14 states have already closed their voter registration with another 5 set to do so within the next week!
