Both Democratic and Republican officials overseeing the process of voting by mail have outlined the steps they take to ensure the integrity of the system, which is coming into more widespread use because of the coronavirus.

"There is NO WAY that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent," Trump tweeted."Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed. The Governor of California is sending Ballots to millions of people, anyone living in the state, no matter who they are or how they got there, will get one.

"We can't do that," the president said of expanded mail-in voting."Absentee is okay: You're sick. You're away. As an example, I have to do an absentee because I'm voting in Florida, and I happen to be president. I live in that very beautiful house over there that's painted white. So that's okay. And it's okay for people that are sick and they can't get up.

Responding to Trump's claims, California Secretary of State Alex Padilla, a Democrat, pointed to vote by mail's success across the West Coast and said his state also requires signature verification. "Voting by mail is secure," Padilla said."And unfortunately, not only is the accusation that it isn't baseless, but frankly, hypocritical. You look at Trump himself. He is a absentee voter. He's the first one to try to undermine people's confidence in vote by mail and elections in general. I mean, I think what's really going on here is they're setting the stage to call into question results from the November election that they may not like.

He rants because if we mail in the votes Ivankas voting machines can’t be hacked and he can’t win.

“It has been my experience that paper ballots are EXTREMELY susceptible to fraud...stories that would make your head spin.”~Jerry Nadler, 2004

No cheat by mail please.

Voting should be IN PERSON!

Our Country should NEVER NEVER allow voting by mail, andvote harvesting (other than the extremely LIMITED use for those too ill, or out of Country to vote in person)

They only 'work' if the people running them do not have a 'Bias'. But American media has destroyed Americans trust. We will not trust mail in ballots to be counted in many districts around America. Look at Fla in 2018.

Laughable. If mail in voting happens then R's will never win again (for POTUS)

Грустная новость

Easier to lie in writing or in person? Easier to fill out a few forms or wait in a few lines?

Don’t trust no one NO VOTING BY MAIL POST OFFICE GOVERNORS MAYORS VOTING HEADS SLL HAVE BEEN PAID OFF TO CHEAT

NO VOTING BY MAIL DEMOCRATS WANT TO CHEAT THEYVE TRIED IT ALREADY

All I’m going to say is..... I like stuffing boxes. Ladies.....

Imagine thinking we should drastically change the nomination process months before a presidential election.

. STOP TRUMP / BOYCOTT TWITTER: Anti-Trump Public has power to cancel Trump Twitter Acc. If public stops using Twitter, Trumps Twitter acc will be stopped. I will boycott Twitter & not log-on from 6/1-6/30 & will cancel my Twitter Acc if Trump Twitter Acc is not cancelled by 6/30

✅ fact checked by Twitter!

Trump himself votes by mail. He did in the last election.

That's why I switched to it for the PA primary this year. I'm doing this every year now. Seriously. It's far better than the old way.

Care to rethink your position on the safety and integrity of mail-in voting, NBC?

Well as long as Democrats are overseeing the integrity then we should be all good...

Just another sign of desperation by Fake And Weak Prez.

He should be Hold Accountable for spreading misinformation and promoting unhealthy practices for Americans. We are close to 100,000 death by coronavirus, still, pretty much active.

There are ZERO Safeguards to ensure Integrity of the Vote using Mail in Ballots.Even the dumbest of Dumbeddown know VOTER ROLLS in Many States haven't been UPDATED in decades.Look for MASSIVE Voter Fraud in Sanctuary States like California where Thousands of Illegal INVADERS Vote

For decades patriotic Democrats & Republicans would go to there local precincts to cast there votes it the American thing to do unless your absolutely unable to go to a precinct to vote .... Using Covid19 as an excuse is Unamerican

Trump wants to be the only one who can vote by mail. Sound just like a person who wants to be a dictator.

morningmika question, if trump disputes outcome of Nov. election for whatever reason and January 20th comes around does his and pense's terms automatically end? And if so would that mean SpeakerPelosi would become the acting president? JoeBiden Morning_Joe robreiner

Twitter exec in charge of effort to fact-check Trump has history of anti-Trump posts, called McConnell a 'bag of farts'

EVERY poll in America & every county & state election board MUST HAVE POLL WATCHERS of each party during vote counts.

Banana Republic Democrats are sexually aroused by all the opportunities for voter fraud that mail in voting presents.

Only a FRAUD 😡 would fear Fraud!

Voter fraud is real

Cannot be trusted. Period. This cannot be allowed.
