Mail-In Ballots Need To Go

You're conflating going back to "the horse and buggy days" with using common sense to reduce vote fraud.

The best way to guard against vote fraud is to use paper ballots cast in person only, no mail in voting (except for a small number of justified absentee ballots), voter ID, and a restricted time window to cast ballots (not having an "election season.")

That doesn’t preclude them from taking an hour off work to vote and moving them to the front of the line when they arrive at the polling spot. There could be a federal law requiring that.

Then why are you posting here as though it’s all irrelevant?

Conservatism is about truth tempered by higher power morality

But literally it’s also about pushback against destructive change

Both are pillars of conservative thought from Socrates musing forward

But the earth keeps spinning and has been since time began.
At some point each of us will die, things will continue and
change will occur as progress evolves be it good or bad.
JMO, yours may vary as is your right.

I agree in part

I tell my lib friends

About four of them

Despite your broadcasting I’m not engaging

It’s pointless and we’ll be dead soon enough and our kids can fight it out

I cede that

Not meaning to be abvesorial or against your right to think and
make choices/decisions based upon what you see, read and have
some interest in.

If you want to do a little research as to what the history of
humanitly might be then take a few moment to glance at what a
little history/research/etc/etc/etc may be of some interest to
you.  I'm by far not that knowledgeable but there are things out
there that have info that may well be interest to you or give a
thought or two to what really is history of the human race and
how did this world/earth/etc come into being.  A few short minutes 
may give you something that you may be interested in.
