It is partly because of that, but don’t get distracted. This is mostly about cheating in the midterm elections. They use covid as an excuse to install all those ballot cheat boxes and to skirt everyone other legal protection against fraud as well. It worked so well in 2020. They are going to do it again. It is the only way they don’t get wiped out. Every illness is going to be called Covid. And the Fake tests will trip even for the common cold.
The people in NY voted against mail in ballots except for those who can prove they can’t vote in person. The NY legislature and the governor said screw the people and said we are going to allow anyone to use mail in ballots anyways(through 2021).
Same reason. They must be able to cheat.
