At least three-quarters of all American voters will be eligible to receive a ballot in the mail for the 2020 election — the most in U.S. history, according to a New York Times analysis. If recent election trends hold and turnout increases, as experts predict, roughly 80 million mail ballots will flood election offices this fall, more than double the number that were returned in 2016.
All states allow at least some mail voting, but some will make it more accessible to voters than others. Story continuesSeveral of the states that made changes for the primaries are keeping them in place for the general election, while others are making separate adjustments for the fall. A handful of states have not made any modifications and appear unlikely to do so.
Of the states that have held presidential primaries and caucuses this year, 31 saw an increase in turnout compared with 2016. Of those, 18 had sent either ballots or ballot applications to all voters before the primaries. Indeed, the primaries also exposed the myriad problems that elections officials and voters could face this fall.
Studies have repeatedly shown that voting fraud of any kind is extremely rare in the United States. And states and counties that have transitioned to all-mail voting have seen little evidence of partisan advantage.Researchers said that thinly stretched election offices might quickly become overwhelmed by the volume of mail ballots.
Oh hell no!!! We have voted in person for 200 years, thru war, famine and pandemics! We still can vote in person. PS: ever had your mail lost by the PO & never seen again? Ya it happens...just saying
Now we just need a functioning USPS that hasn't been undermined by DeJoy and Trump, with GOP help.
