I live in Florida, we have absentee balloting, what’s the difference between voting absentee and what the Democrats are suggesting..

If they are suggesting publishing a ballot in the newspaper and people using that to vote, then no way, but since we have absentee voting in Florida, if people want to use that go ahead, it’s already legal...

Donald J. Trump

Absentee Ballots are a great way to vote for the many senior citizens, military, and others who can’t get to the polls on Election Day. These ballots are very different from 100% Mail-In Voting, which is “RIPE for FRAUD,” and shouldn’t be allowed!

Ballot harvesting
Ballot harvesting, also called vote harvesting, is the collecting and submitting of absentee or mail-in voter ballots by volunteers or workers. It occurs in some areas of the U.S. where voting by mail is common, but is illegal in some other states. Arizona banned the practice except for family members and caregivers.

Look it up.

And they also don’t count Rep ballots.

The Dem plan seems to be to mail every registered voter a ballot. Then Democrat operatives would go door to door and either “harvest” the ballot directly or remind the person to mail it. Long term they want a voting app on phones I suppose.

Do you remember the ruckus a few months back about Wisconsin disenfranchising minorities by removing them from the voter registration rolls?

The real story was that the state was cleaning up duplicates (as they are required to by law) and had over 200,000 names where the voter moved and updated their registration somewhere else but were not yet deleted from the old address. Or had updated their driver's license address and no longer matched the old address. That type of stuff.

Then the state sent out the "you might be removed if you don't respond" letters. Then waited. Then sent the second letter. Then waited. And still have over 200,000 names to be removed.

Then the dems on the state election committee refused to purge these names. And were taken to court and were order to do it, and still refused.

Fast forward to the virus and the infamous spring elections (with their own court case). And what were the dems asking for? A ballot sent to every registered voter.

Yup, including these 200,000 duplicates.

That's the problem.
