You’re talking about absentee (requested mail votes) ballots, not mail in. There’s a huge, huuuuge difference. The difference between honest votes and illegal votes, plotted by the Democrats as the new way to cheat. Of course, military votes must
be mailed in (been there, done that) and disabled people should have requested absentee ballots. It has nothing to do with being lazy, but too many registered voters simply can’t go to the trouble of standing in a line forte privilege of voting.
There is not a huge difference between mail in and absentee ballots, both have to be certified by election officials both need two witnesses and both can be verified they are coming from an individual. If you had watched the news, hundreds of people were called in to verify they were how their ballot said they were.
I disagree you should have to stand in line to vote, voting should be easy there should be checks and balances to assure a vote is correct but there should never be a time when Americans have to stand in line for 4,6,8 hours to cast a vote. That's being lazy to not fix these problems instead of making it harder. I live in a rural county where 20 years ago I could go to my church and vote, in and out in a few minutes everyone knew each other, done deal. Now the Republicans governing our state have taken all but one polling location in our county and it has made voting a serious chore. Some states have Alabama for one took early voting completely off the board. Now everyone there has to cram into the few locations provided and vote on election day, what's that all about if it isn't voter suppression. Many can't take the day off to go stand in line to vote. Mail in is the best answer to all this mess and the call of voter suppression.
