I don't know if you have ever read it, but in the Book Starship Troopers by Heinlien, the main character is speaking with a doctor when he is taking his induction physical. In the book, military service (Broadened further in future chapters to electrical linemen, firefighters and police) guarantees the right to vote. The doctor (A civilian) examining him had this to say; 'But if you came in here in a wheel chair and blind in both eyes and were silly enough to insist on enrolling, they would find something silly enough to match. Counting the fuzz on a caterpillar by touch, maybe.'
I can see someone in charge of such things saying 'organ donor until there's nothing left'
