Yes. Yes they should, with ONE exception: Active duty military personnel. Everyone else should get to a polling place or get stuffed.

 

I disagree because of what happened in my district in 2012. I live in Orange county Florida and I live in an area that is growing very quickly and we had to wait 3+ hours to vote because I live in a democratic district. I have done voting by mail since and I am thankful for it.

According to some (although Trump's voter fraud commission failed to find any evidence of voter fraud) mail in ballots are rampant with fraud. Should absentee ballots then be made illegal?

Mail in ballots are easy to commit fraud with but to prove individuals committed said fraud is extremely difficult. I do not do this but I could easily take my wife's ballot and fill it out and send it back. To prove it is not her would be impossible.

The same week President Trump told the public that voting by mail is “corrupt” and “RIPE for FRAUD,” his own party was sending a very different message to Republican voters in Pennsylvania.

“Voting by mail is an easy, convenient and secure way to cast your ballot,” read a mail piece the Republican National Committee distributed across the Keystone State. “Return the attached official Republican Party mail-in ballot application to avoid lines and protect yourself from large crowds on Election Day.”

Despite the president’s rhetoric, state party leaders across the country are aggressively urging their voters to cast ballots by mail, GOP officials confirm. In addition, Republican officeholders in at least 16 states that do not have all-mail elections are encouraging people to vote absentee during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a tally by The Washington Post.

STANDING UP FOR BALLOT INTEGRITY: 

 

Kentucky lawmakers override veto of voter ID measure..

 

“Republican lawmakers in Kentucky swept aside the Democratic governor’s veto of a bill to require the state’s residents to show a government-issued photo ID in order to vote. Votes to override Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto easily cleared the GOP-led Senate and House as lawmakers reconvened Tuesday for a wrap-up session amid the coronavirus outbreak.”

15 Election Results That Were Thrown Out Because of Fraudulent Mail-In Ballots

by Fred Lucas

 

Voter fraud is too nominal to make a difference in any given election, goes one popular line of argument. But tell that to voters in parts of Florida, Missouri, New York, and North Carolina in recent years.

 

Districts in these four states saw election outcomes overturned after absentee voter fraud came to light. 

 

Now, with millions of Americans homebound because of COVID-19, progressives are amping up their push for national mail-in voting as Michelle Obama throws her support behind related legislation purporting to be a response to the pandemic.

19 coronavirus cases connected to Wisconsin primary election, state health official says

 

(CNN)At least 19 people in Wisconsin who said they voted in-person or worked the polls for the state's April 7 primary election have tested positive for the coronavirus, according to the state health department.

 

Wisconsin Department of Health Services Deputy Secretary Julie Willems Van Dijk said that the 19 people received positive test results after April 9, which was first reported Tuesday by Talking Points Memo.


However, Willems Van Dijk said that several of those people "reported other possible exposures as well."

VOTING IS SAFER THAN GROCERY SHOPPING:

 

 Wisconsin saw no coronavirus infection-rate spike after April 7 election, study says.

 

 

 

But.........but..........the narrative

 

The coronavirus is so bad we have to change the way we vote, invent solar powered airplanes, fish only from canoes, forget about planting gardens, give up painting and pay off all the debt from Illinois's pensions. That's one bad virus. No wonder we can still buy weed.

  In the future pot will be a drug to control the masses with.  After all the businesses, farms, etc. are collectivized by the government a small packet of pot will be part of the weekly paycheck.  This will keep guys like Tibs pacified as they will no longer care about the hopelessness of being under a far reaching central government.  Note to Tibs is all you liberals think you will be right there with the ruling elites enjoying the good life while the masses hopelessly toil but it will not be that way in reality.  In reality the socialist/communist governments are the ultimate pyramid scheme with very few at the top ordering a nominally larger immediate underlayer (commissars) with everybody a slave to the state.
