Tell Us Again… Why Was Mail-in Voting So Important?
American Thinker ^ | 20 Nov, 2020 | P.F. Whalen

Posted on 11/20/2020 3:59:05 AM PST by MtnClimber

In-person voting on Election Day presented unique health risks for our states’ electorates, we were told. So much so, in fact, that many states went to extraordinary lengths to minimize, or even eliminate, such voting. Therefore, consider the examples of three such states – one red state (Florida), one purple state (Pennsylvania), and one blue state (New Jersey). Let’s examine the degree of mail-in balloting that occurred in each state, and the subsequent results of new cases of COVID-19 in those states since the election.

In-person voting was held in both Florida and Pennsylvania, but both states offered mail-in voting that required voters to request such ballots. Out of just under 11 million total votes cast in Florida, 1.3 million were mail-in ballots, meaning that approximately 88% of Florida voters cast their ballots in person. In Pennsylvania, mail-in voting was significantly higher, likely due in large part to the extensive effort by many Pennsylvania politicians, particularly Democrats, encouraging citizens to opt for the mail-in method of voting. As a result, Pennsylvania had over 2.6 million mail-in votes cast (double that of Florida) out of a total of 6.8 million ballots that have been counted, meaning there were only 61% of voters that voted in-person in the state.

If “mail in voting” is so important ‘now’, why is it that a large majority of our military members stationed overseas, seem to have become ‘missing’, with each Presidential election, going back to the time of Reagan?

Isn’t it interesting, that with each election, with this surmise, that the USPS has been manipulating the election, and that the USPS has been hand in hand with the Democrats?

Florida has been doing mail ins forever. Pennsylvania had there first time with that volume. Florida went through growing pains but now is a well oiled machine. Pennsylvania hopefully will get there.

After the lazy turn out for Hillary the Democrats knew they had to end the elections and busing people around.This only means the Democrats are back to the drawing board.

I hope not as it is very subject to graft. I want the right to vote to be tightly tied to an ID very similar to a driver’s license. It must have a picture and thumb print, current address,etc. It must state clearly the person is a citizen of the USA. We would NOT be the first nation in the world to have ALL people who vote in person to be so identified. I think there is no excuse for not voting in person. I have been overseas for years and foregone the right to vote. It is aggravating but not worse than what we are experiencing now nationally with mail in fraud.

Do you honestly think people wouldn’t love to have mail in voting as continuing.

WuFlu had been perfected and was waiting to be released at the proper time.

In 2019, RATs quietly skulked throughout the important states to put in place loose voting protocols. Some were done illegitimately and not through legislatures. This included mail-in ballots.

January 2020 - election year. Everything was in place to start running the scam. Release Covid. Scare the living crap out of Americans. You’ll die if you vote at a polling place so you must do it by mail if you want to live.

All I can say is that since Florida went full on mail in for any reason, we’ve won every state wide election but agriculture secretary. That right there points that it CAN BE a success.

The fear of disenfranchisement of voters that couldn't get out because of the phony pandemic of the phony covid19 that would prevent THE MILLIONS THAT CAME OUT TO VOTE THAT HAD NEVER DONE SO BEFORE IN ANY AMERICAN ELECTION ...

THAT'S why.


I told you that one to tell you the truth:

.. because President Trump is unbeatable and unstoppable, they HAD to do SOMETHING to keep from going to prison !

Look who was re-elected ... biden/harris of course, but also the squad ... all traitorous criminals and would surely be imprisoned but can now run defense as a sitting politician

This whole mess that was started by the communist’s will probably end up with blood in the streets but in the end show what crooked, slimy pieces of garbage the socialist’s really are.
