Everyone else should get to a polling place or get stuffed. I'm amazed how you're always on the wrong side of every argument. What a winner. The fact that we need to go to a physical location to check a box in 2020 is laughable. Edited April 9, 2020 by BullBuchanan 1

Cinga Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 The original intent of an absentee ballot was that some people could not for whatever reason, be at their primary home residence on ELECTION DAY! If we are no longer going to do this on a single day, then absentee ballots should only go to service members, or people who have sworn an affidavit that this is their primary residence but they cannot be there during the extended voting period and state a reason. 3

Tiberius Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 If all the poll workers quit we will have to do absentee ballots. Can’t let the Republicans turn this pandemic into the greatest voter suppression scheme ever.

B-Man Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Don't let this chance go to waste libs.

Spot on. When in NY I used absentee ballots often as I traveled for work. When I moved to Texas, ID was required in order to vote. I had to prove citizenship in order to get a drivers license. This is not an issue as they made many accommodations on the type of ID. If you did not have an ID it was because you would not try or did not meet the requirements. If voting is an important right, why is it not important to protect that right by asking for ID. You need a legit ID to do many things in society - why is this important right not universally one of these. 3 1 2

We can’t do that now, this is an emergency, the absentee ballots would be easier and states already do it. 1
billsfan89 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 I am shocked that this is even a debate. We should be making it easier for people to vote not harder. Allowing mail in ballots and early voting for all 50 states plus Puerto Rico is a good thing. 2 1

Wouldn't it be just as easy to hack electronic voting systems that have no paper trail? Mail in ballots have to be tied to an individual voter and leave a paper trail. It also takes place over many weeks which gives election officials an easier time noticing abnormal voting patterns.

Look at California in 2018 and it’s ballot harvesting issues. It’s not difficult to see how rampant fraud can be when there’s no oversight — which there wouldn’t be if the elections are federalized. Voting is a right people have died to protect and pass on. Saying we can’t do it today because of a bug is the height of cowardice. It’s time to be smart AND brave. 1
