You see, the liberals are known for cheating sooo when they are counting the votes and they know they have a certain amount of mail in votes... they will assume they will be liberal. So they will only make up the votes for what they think they need to win. Then, all of the mail in votes will be for Trump and they will lose.
The issue is that we really don't know the extent to which the early vote will be more Democratic-leaning than the overall tally. There's no history of early voting during a pandemic. Moreover, just because we know the party affiliation of the voters returning ballots in some states doesn't mean we know they're voting for.
And remember, a vote cast on Election Day is worth the exact same as a vote cast early.
Democrats learned that the hard way back in 2016. In a year in which the partisan split between early and Election Day voters was much smaller, Hillary Clinton won voters who cast their ballots before Election Day in two pivotal battlegrounds: Florida and North Carolina.
I can recall a lot of Democrats were giddy that more registered Democrats had voted early in Florida.
But it was Trump who won overwhelmingly with Election Day voters and carried both states.
You could see how a similar situation might unfold in Florida this year. A lot more Democrats are voting early in Florida than Republicans, while Republicans seem to want to wait in the Sunshine State.
An ABC News/Washington Post poll from late September shows that Biden winning by a wide margin is entirely consistent with a scenario in which Trump wins the state. Trump got 51% to Biden's 47% in the poll overall, despite Trump losing by 28 points among early likely Florida voters.

Brilliant really.
As Trump & Company are known for baseless accusations having nothing to do with reality.
“Republicans should fight very hard when it comes to state wide mail-in voting,” the president tweeted Wednesday morning. “Democrats are clamoring for it. Tremendous potential for voter fraud, and for whatever reason, doesn’t work out well for Republicans.”
Of course, the next month Mr. Louis Dejoy was selected as Postmaster General, and he began a process of removing specialized machines that sort mail ballots, as well as implementing other policies that were, he said, designed to make the mail more efficient, but resulted in slow downs:
Indeed, if the millions of Trump voters wait until November 3rd, there is no guarantee that their polling station will be open. Texas has been having problems with workers at the stations testing positive for the virus, necessitating the closure of the station, at least temporarily:
I do urge Trump supporters to vote early, if possible in their locality. It is clear that the number of covid cases is rising in almost all states, and since many of those that man the polling stations tend to be senior citizens, it is likely there will be some problems come election day.
The Dems are poised to win because they have rigged the system in their favor. The only way to beat them is to turn out in overwhelming numbers on election day or to get those mail in ballots sent in.
It really is funny how some will laugh at Trump for changing his mind on a topic when Biden has been flip flopping for 47 years and often landing on the wrong side of issues.
Trump's issue with mail in voting has never actually been with voting by mail. The problem is that voting by mail gets around some of the voter suppression techniques he was relying on.
Given the fact that I get several pieces of misdirected mail addressed to other people at other addresses (some not even located anywhere near me) each week, there's no way in hell I would ever trust mail-in voting.
