USPS warns 46 states it can't guarantee delayed mail-in ballots will be counted
https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/po...4-7043458f45b2


More than 500,000 mail ballots were rejected in the primaries. That could make the difference in battleground states this fall.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...16e_story.html


It should be obvious by now that there are MASSIVE FLAWS with voting by mail, flaws so big that they could easily swing national elections. Why on Earth would anyone in their right mind favor voting by mail?

This is going to be the biggest disaster of an election on record. I applied for a mail in ballot and the USPS returned it undelivered. They can't even keep up with thing 2 months before the election.

The USPS does not count votes. If the postmark qualifies, it should be counted.

We can wait.

...but maybe some people are at a high risk for Covid and don't want to catch the disease and die...and standing in line for hours next to tons of people doesn't seem idea to them. Maybe they won't be in their home state at the time of voting. Maybe they are elderly and disabled.

Just from looking at the tens of thousands of mail-in ballots rejected during the primary elections this year, we can assume that hundreds of thousands will be rejected in the general election. some elections had to be rejected and a new one called for.

I think the utter chaos from a massive mail-in election is what the Democrats are counting on, so they can reject the election, and Burn, Loot, Murder.

Neither side is willing to admit.

All mailed voting benefits Dems so they are pushing it.
Not doing this benefits Republicans so they are against it.

All the other reasons people mention are moot.
