Billionaire Tom Steyer's turnout group shifts focus to mail-in voting amid Post Office crisis

Polls taken by NexGen suggest that, while many young voters do want to participate in 2020 via mail-in ballots, some don't fully understand how to do so. The progressive nonprofit organization is pushing ahead with a number of new initiatives to rectify that.

Steyer told CNBC in a recent interview that he believes the focus on mail-in balloting should be about educating voters on how to go about using the mail system as a way to vote. He pointed to NextGen's recent voter outreach through phone text messages with information on how to best receive a mail ballot.

Steyer also discussed the work being done by Give Green, a joint fundraising effort between NextGen, LCV Victory Fund and NRDC Action Fund PAC. The groups support over a dozen candidates, including Biden himself, who they believe has polices that can successfully take on climate change. Steyer told CNBC that Give Green has raised at least $30 million in direct contributions for their candidates.

We Americans vote in person. If we are unable to vote in person, we request an absentee ballot. One voter, one vote. It's not that hard. There's no voter suppression or intimidation, these are lies. It's not about the issue, it's to create chaos.

We have lots of people talking about the postal serve, how many you think has ever bought a sheet of stamps?

Get the CEO of Goodyear Tire on today to discuss Trump calling for a boycott on Goodyear Tires. Ask Joe Kernen, the little Trumpkin, what he thinks of Trump trashing one of the largest employers and oldest companies in Ohio.

I thought this guy had his hands full funding antifa?

Here's an idea: Everybody has a phone....... TAKE A PHOTO OF YOUR VOTE BEFORE YOU PUT IT IN THE BOX. Then have someone, e.g. the International Court in the Hague put up a website to send them to & settle any dispute that might come from Trump.

The USPS has been in crisis for a while.. 1 more year and my wife is OUTOFTHERE!
