not sure I follow - i chose to vote by mail by requesting a mail in ballot. i am not worried about intimidated in my home to vote for someone I don't want elected. My ballot is then verified by an election official by matching my signature on the ballot's seal to my florida driver's license signature. the ballot comes directly to my home, to the address listed on my driver's license. I then verify the ballot is accepted via an online portal and verify it made it into the voter database. i think my vote is safe and correctly counted. are we afraid they are trying to force everyone to vote this way? if so, only send ballots to US citizens with valid state IDs, that eliminates the fear of illegals voting at a polling station or someone somehow voting twice. Go thru the same process of verifying the signature and force the voter to be responsible for making sure their vote is accepted and counted. if we are not afraid of this being forced but instead are giving the voter the same option I have in Florida (where Trump won) then I see no issues. Fraud can occur at any point in any system. But Florida's mail in balloting seems to work well. I think you should advocate your state institute a similar system instead of something that can be easily faked or manipulated.
i also think saying my evidence is completely anecdotal is sort of short sighted as well - i have about 14 years of evidence - i have been voting by mail that long, you are just speculating about this fraud that may occur.
if you just sit around and complain about potential fraud and don't get involved then maybe you deserve being disenfranchised. if your state is democratically led go get involved man. do something, i don't think President Trump is telling my Governor DeSantis (in ) to change our vote by mail system. We are not hearing anything about potential mail in fraud in our state. And yes that article was most likely by liberal media crying democrats in were disenfranchised - but you're doing the same. They probably didn't have proof of ballots being thrown out just like you have no proof that mail in voting with be fraudulent. you still have a few months before the election to go make a difference if your state is threatening mail in only.
Florida is a "swing" state that went for Trump in the previous election. We have a conservative Republican governor that seems to be extremely friendly with President Trump, I don't think we're going to get any funny business going on. If anything the democrats will be crying about voter fraud like always. Remember the hanging chad issue that went for Bush in 2000 and every democrat was crying here and it almost caused a recount. The dems down here cried voter fraud when Trump won too. If you're worried about it in your state I'd say go volunteer for a position in the election office, advocate for better oversight. I think you're missing an opportunity to make it go right. I really don't see voters being intimidated into a vote - i think the fraud would be more likely from fake votes or votes from illegals - and the system we have stops that process.
you may be right - but i am just stating what i know - hopefully if they enact mail in voting in your state you now have a model to push for if you read what I've said and reference how florida has set it up and ADVOCATE in your state for a similar model. go get involved, don't just sit back and believe they are going to disenfranchise you. i am confident in my governor and the system we have - you may not be able to change your governor, but you can get involved in changing the mail in vote process to hopefully close the chances of fraud. don't wait until it is too late and just complain they may cheat you - go make sure they cannot cheat you.
