Mailin ballots versus absentee ballots—a HUGE difference!
There have always been absentee ballots—but the key thing is you (the individual voter) have to ask for one.
Mailin ballots in some states are sent to EVERY registered voter, and therein lies the problem.
One way people have voted is to not vote. In other words, it was not worth their time and money to go vote, ask for an absentee ballot or because they thought none of the choices mattered.
Ballots mailed to everyone, even those who have no intention, reason or desire to vote can be intercepted or harvested. The worst thing is harvested by activists trying to get votes for their candidates/issues/ballot measures.
This absolutely is a threat to our democracy. A person either votes or does not. No one should ever be allowed to vote in place of another. THAT is fraud.
Thanks for setting me straight on that...I didn’t give any thought to the term mail-in, thinking it was speaking of absentee ballots.
Just when and what state started the mail-in? I’m not asking WHO as it goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway. It had to be states with dems in charge.
