It seems voting in the US is a lot less secret and anonymous then elsewhere. All people do in Germany is scratching your name off of the voter list at your polling station to avoid someone else voting again in your name.

The list of names so is not public or anything special, it is just a list names and adresses pulled from the respective resident list maintained by your cities / towns / communities authorities anyway.
