‘You against in person early voting at the precinct or voting location?’

Yes, particularly in states like Ohio that allow you to register and vote on the same day, almost no documentation needed, thank you ‘motor voter’

‘You against people confined to nursing homes, not able to travel, jail, out of state, etc. not being allowed to vote?’

I’ m against them mass marking IE premarking ballots for these people and distributing them. That is what the unions and ACORN do. If people who are out of town, in jail or in a nursing home they can request a ballot themselves. If they can not or do not they should not vote.

Same day voter registration isn’t available in Texas, so doesn’t apply.

Essentially a request by the voter is required to be made to the Clerk within a specified time period which begins 60 days prior to the election and ends 7 days before the election. The request must be submitted by mail; common or contract carrier; telephonic facsimile machine. The clerk mails the ballot to the individual if they meet all the request documentation and are a registered voter. The voter votes the ballot and returns it in a carrier envelope via mail or common carrier which the carrier must present along with the ballot a delivery reciept of who gave them the ballot.

Fraud can happen for sure but I don’t thinks it’s as rampant as you think so here in Texas. It is a lot more one on one from the request to the mailing of the ballot to the mailing back of the executed ballot.
