Watched a TV news report yesterday,  you don't have to depend on the postal service , drop off your completed ballot at your local Board of Elections before Election Day and let them stamp a date on that envelope. If you don't receive a ballot in the mail , vote in person and advise the BOE of this if you wanted the mail in ballot.

So, it is too dangerous to go to the polling place, but there is no issue going to the board of elections office? And, the backup plan for mail-in voting is going to the polling place? ?

It's good to have options during covid 19

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: The Democrats Plan On Stealing the Election. 

 

“In each one of these ‘steal the election’ rants, Biden immediately rambles on about mail-in ballots.

 

Again, that’s all they’ve got and they know it.

 

That’s where the real election stealing can happen and it’s not going to be done by the Republicans.”

Over half of a party's voter base submitting their vote by mail would certainly seem to be unprecedented 

 

Only due to the risk of covid 19

My edit is what I believe we are seeing in the stats from that tweet. Nearly 100 days is still a good while and a lot can change.

I suspect that by the time they are done the dems will have a 114% turnout.

It sounds like going somewhere to vote is not as dangerous as people are trying to lead people to believe.

Only going to church and voting in person are COVID hazards. Not rioting, liquor stores or marijuana dispensaries.

You forgot Trump rallies. They inject you with COVID as you are walking in the door at Trump rallies. You don't have to worry about Biden rallies as nobody shows up for them.

I don't meet the qualifications for an absentee ballot,

 

President Trump does.

 

 

If Joe knew anything, he would know that.

So the pandemic doesn't move the needle for you as far as this goes?

Can you go out and riot and loot? Can you go hang out in a bar? Can you go sit on the beach? Get your ass to the polling station to vote.

The right to vote is one of our most sacred rights, just like our First Amendment rights.  Not everyone is in a situation to just 'get their asses to the polling station'.  Traditionally, with so many Republican voters in the at-risk category for COVID-19 due to age, this seems to me like something the GOP should want.  The fact that Trump is against it seems like he's just trying to give himself an excuse in case the polls hold up this time.

According to Cuomo and Newsome, you're safe to mail in your vote provided that when you do it you also order a meal that the state approves as substantial.

 

Otherwise you get the Covid.

 

 

True story.
