Oregon has had "absentee" voting for decades. Washington needs to keep the tradition for being different from it's older sibling - keep the in person voting and meet your new neighbors, from where-ever they are from. In Oregon, the inperson voting, was a way to recognize our neighbors (I went to school with their daughter, my parents were friends, and their dog kept us company. and many of the our other neighbors were Oregon Trail descendants).
Voting by mail or drop off is fantastic! It is easy, and more importantly gives voters a chance to review all the candidates and issues in the comfort of their home. Why Trump hates it is beyond me. But frankly I don't care about him at this point.
