You must be 18 to vote. However, a 17 year old can register to vote and would be able to vote in a primary that is for a federal election that he would be voting for later on. In UK military you can register at 17 but you still will not be able to vote until 18

no, you do not have to register to vote. In most states you have to register where you live and do it some fixed time before the election. As long as you do not move out of your voting precinct your registration will stay in effect from one year to another even if you do not vote in every election.

How old must you be to register to voter in the US?

You can register to vote when 17 in some places. The registration process is handled by the individual states and they can provide you with specific details. The actual voting age is 18, but there are instances where a 17 year old can vote in a primary, when they are going to be old enough to vote in the main election. I voted when I was 17 in the Presidential Primary, because I was going to be 18 when the actual election took place.

Is 18 the legal voting age in USA?

In the US, 18 year olds are of the legal voting age. I encourage all 18 year olds to register, (can't vote if you don't register) listen to all sides on all issues and make up your own mind as to how you will vote. If you don't vote, don't whine about the outcome if your person doesn't win.
