This is why if you are not in the poll book, you will be issued a provisional ballot which will only be counted after your eligibility has been verified.

The eligibility is verified before election day.

If you records will be flagged, why do they still keep asking you? I highly doubt that any data that is based on the DMV records gets flagged in anyway. So far i was called up for jury duty twice, and they randomly choose the jurors here from the DMV register.
