About time.

Work schedules often required my family to vote absentee even before the "no excuse" law took effect, and, frankly, paying your own postage (sometimes at 2oz rate) was a vestige of a poll tax.

Well I thought the article was wrong, but I researched it and our dumbass REPUBLICAN controlled legislature DID pass a bill authorizing mail-in voting in October, 2019. Grrrrrr!

there’s a difference between accommodating a crippled or extremely ill, confined person with an absentee ballot by request (for one thing, there’s the opportunity to verify citizenship, residency, and whether s/he is alive or deceased)........

and, on the other hand, just mailing out millions and millions and millions of ballots to everyone and his dog and deceased uncles and empty lots and and and.

this mass mailing is nothing better than enabling and begging for the mass-scale voting fraud that is already set up to occur

“Eligible voters can apply for mail-in or absentee ballots online or in person at county election offices and by paper forms”

Aside from the postage being paid how is this different from 2016?

50 cents for a stamp. Yep that is a poll tax.

Postage stamps add to the racial wealth gap in the USA. Lets do away with postage stamps. Mail in the USA should be free. This is a Free country after all...

I thought the issue with the pre-paid envelopes was that it didn't record a date stamp (which is basically the most important information in the world on a mail-in ballot).

I may be wrong on this.

If you must apply for an absentee or mail in ballot, certify you are who you claim to be, have to sign the envelope when you send it back, I am ok with that. I would hope there would be some warnings that to falsify such information either in the application or the ballot itself is a crime (but not holding my breath on that one).

Will they have the voter’s party affiliation on the envelope, so the mail sorter knows which ballots to “lose”?

I don’t think that’s going to solve the problem. NYs problem was missing or irregular signatures. There were also a lot with no postmark but they did not reject them for that reason.

You do understand that this is prep work for MASSIVE VOTE FRAUD this November? There will be the necessary number of ballots showing up post Election Day to allow Biden to carry Pennsylvania!

Who in Pennsylvania is ‘eligible’ for a mail-in ballot?

Whelp, PA is gone. Every county has a number. That number will be attained by a greater number of fraudulent mail-in ballots.

For example: Here is how “registration” happened in Prince William County, Virginia when the Democrats took power: THE INSPECTION OF IDENTIFICATION WAS LESS THAN CURSORY. You could have showed them a Topps Baseball Card with the bubble gum still sticking to it, if you were a democrat voter. They didn’t care.

For mail-ins? This will be worse. Far worse. They are out for blood.

"About time."

Total BS!
What an absurd statement!...
Seems strange that an Freeper would cheer the guaranteeing of the 2020 elections a communist victory...
Unless coming out of the closet is contagious...
