We bank online, so I see no reason for not voting online
I would imagine fairly soon there will be some kind of database that allows them to easily keep voter records updated. One of the problems is that right now we have different states handling things in different ways. It wouldn't be hard to believe if I moved to a different state or even county within my state I would end up being on both voter rolls for a little while.

A nationwide database could easily solve that issue and could make things run smoothly and allow for online voting or vote by mail that was easy to process/count.
