Thats why mail in votes are so important. It's hard for the dead to get out.

Of course a Republican would think this. It would end their method of closing down polling places in heavily Democratic areas to influence the results.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) Believes Universal Voting By Mail "Would Be The End of Our Republic"


What does this guy care about the republic? His party is actively engaged in suppressing the popular vote and supports all kinds of other types of political chicanery. These people are hypocrites of the highest order.

States like Oregon, Washington, Utah, Hawaii and Colorado have had vote by mail for years.

Don't see the need for it but not inherently opposed to the idea either. I am concerned about the increased potential for fraud though with voting by mail.

That's a shocking statement for a U.S. citizen to make.

Since this is over-moderated city-data, I'll end my response at that, but know that I have a lot more to say regarding what I think of you personally.

Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and California all allow voting by mail and have had no issues. In fact turnout has increased since it's been allowed. Unless he's saying he prefers lower turnout and discouragement of voting by reducing the opportunity of the people to vote?
He is saying it's much easier to commit fraud. lol That was an easy one.

It's about the topic and nothing else. Granted I'm replying to someone who basis their politics on the color of the candidates skin. Repulsive to think otherwise.
