As for voting by mail, you have to be stupid to vote by snail mail. It is the most unreliable form of sending your information.
Unreliable, and potentially easy to manipulate....how many times have you heard the phrase, "officials just found 500 ballots in the trunk of some election worker's car"...........when the planned winning candidate just happened to be a couple hundred votes behind?????

Voting is IMPORTANT!! If you can't show up at the polling place, with valid ID, then WTH???

Can't we do this online? WH creates a special HTTPS website for voting. You need to verify your current mailing address, SS#, current State or Driver's license and boom you can vote. A voting receipt is sent to your email.

I had a check stolen out of a mail box in front of a post office in Queens two years ago. They changed the payee from a company to some guy in the Bronx and changed the amount from about $10 to $6,000 but it was never cashed. The cops found a copy of my check on the phone of some guy they arrested. The mailbox had the small opening so I thought it was safe but apparently not. Now I use a mailbox by another post office that has the slit opening with an anti-theft device that you have to push the mail through, and I only use it shortly before the post office opens or when it is open.

Good luck with that. This is the Post Office we are talking about. I am waiting 6 weeks and counting for a package to be returned to QVC. According to USPS tracker it has been in Ohio for 5 weeks.

A smarter move would be the party volunteers who usually pick up the elderly to bring them to the polls, should instead, stop at peoples houses and pick up the ballots and deliver them to a drop box.
