Let's save the US Postal Service by tweeting @stevenmnuchin1 and telling him we need mail-in ballots.

I hope we do get mail-in ballots. With the highest level of security and traceability possible. As high as your credit card, bank statement, drivers licence, passport, or IRS tax payment has. Yes there are occasional data breaches, but I don’t recall the NSA having one, nor has anyone attempted to deposit money in my account or pay my bills. Why? Because those systems are designed and operated to ensure high security. I get spam sometimes and the mail delivery person sometimes put someone elses mail in my box, but I’ve never received an email intended for a different email address, only when the sender messes up and puts mine in by mistake.
My point is that secure reliable systems can be built and do exist. If we’re going to use one for voting, it has to meet the highest standards, with no exceptions.
If such a system existed, it could actually really reduce fraud and corrupt practices by election officials who know how to cheat the existing systems and get away with it. Give it some thought and I think most people will agree. Whether it can be done before November, I don’t know but I am confident Trump will not allow the election to be stolen by fraudsters. If we are worried about it, think about how much he has put on the line for this job and how much HE must be worried about it too.
