Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., pushed mail-in voting as a way to counter alleged Republican attempts to suppress minority votes.
“It's really a great system," Merkley said, referring to mail-in voting. "One of those valuable things, which will become more and more important is it stops so many forms of voter suppression and voter intimidation. The Republicans are trying to stop poor people from voting, they’re trying to stop college students from voting, people of color from voting, Indian tribes from voting."
He made those comments during a Tuesday interview with Sirius XM host Dean Obeidallah. Merkley added that mail-in balloting prevents Republicans from engaging in "tricks," like long wait times, that would suppress the vote.

Mail in ballots needed because the Democrats can’t win without cheating.
It is always about race with these dirt bags.
Are they saying people of color are not able to go vote like everyone else?
Seems like an insult
Well heck yeah. Even supersized model stacy abrams knows that.
NO mail-in elections. There would be no point to them, as the results would be a joke.
Bullhockey. Black, brown or yellow people can walk up to their polling place, just like I can. Never saw anyone turned away there due to race.
We have mail-in voting here in Washington State and I don’t believe a republican governor has been elected since its inception - or a senator, for that matter.
I remember how Gregoire stole her Governor’s race......they counted and counted and counted until they ‘found’ enough votes to put her in. And then she was hastily sworn in as Governor.
Why would we try and keep “people of color” away? “People of color” love Trump.
“It’s really a great system,”
...for MASSIVE democrat fraud
Check out the Oregon thread from last night and the huge number of ballots reported in Multnomah County compared with other counties. Definitely cheating by the dems in my opinion.
Yes, Democrats, those of us that are not white can’t figure out how to vote. We are that stupid. (rolling eyes)
VOTE FRAUD ON STEROIDS!!! GOODBYE REPUBLICANS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY! ! YOU BETER STOP THIS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY!

Ami Horowitz: How white liberals really view black voters
If people can wait in line at a liquor store during a pandemic they can walk down to their polling place and vote. If it’s such a big issue with crowd just mandate more polling spots in a city based on population
The DNC Race Card.
Don’t leave home without it!
Very real people of color managed to vote using the normal mechanisms in good numbers, even higher numbers than whites, as recently as 2016 and 2018 all across America. If they don’t understand the system any more, that must reflect the stupidity of Democrat politicians, who confused and deceived them over the past few years.
There must be something in Oregon water or Jeff is on the Sauce for him to make such statements.
