I still don’t see how that would make much of a difference. If you are relying that much on people who take voting so lightly then you already have a problem.

I think the mail-in voting is a much bigger issue to address, since it is aimed at voters who are lazy and/or driven by fear. That’s likely to be a predominantly Democratic cohort.

I am with Dave - early voting is a significant contributor. This is part of the “ground game” - it tells the party whose door they need to knock on, or whose ballot one needs to fill out. As those numbers dwindle. The board of elections in turn provides daily updates.

Alberta is right too = where mail in became easier or more prevalent. It has a higher propensity for fraud. It made it easier to skip the early voting and go “help” people fill out their ballot.

Results would be vastly different if election day were held only on the 1st Tuesday after the 1st Monday, and absentee ballots only by legitimate excuse. The convenience and decline in public morality have had negative consequences on the integrity of the election.
