... so that nobody gets turned away from the polls on election day. If something goes wrong with a mailed ballot - OR if someone discovers on election day that their registration got deleted - they can still vote if they show the proper ID.
Those votes get held out in a special Provisional container that requires follow-up investigation. (The ID needs to be checked out, etc.) But the point is that the voter still gets to vote on election day.
