Mail-in voting poses a threat to the integrity of our elections.
The bipartisan Commission on Federal Election Reform concluded in 2005 that “absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud.”. Mail-in voting is absentee ballots writ large. The Attorney General of New Jersey recently indicted four men for voter fraud involving 800 uncounted absentee ballots and falsifying information to obtain ballots.
Mail-in voting is a threat to the secret ballot.
The voting booth allows us to vote our consciences in private, without pressure from friends and family. Mail-in ballots eliminate this opportunity. Moreover, voters in some state designate the right to “harvest,” or collect ballots from others–for a fee! This is an obvious invitation to fraud.
Mail-in voting is NOT safe because our voter rolls and databases are not up to date. Pew Center on the States found that “Approximately 24 million—one of every eight—voter registrations in the United States are no longer valid or are significantly inaccurate. More than 1.8 million deceased individuals are listed as voters! Approximately 2.75 million people have registrations in more than one state. When voter rolls are not purged of those who have moved, died, or otherwise lost their right to vote, ballots may be sent erroneously to non-voters. When misused, these erroneous voter registrations are enough to swing an election.
In the current election Democrats have taken advantage of all of the above. However, the truth will prevail and Donald Trump will gain a second term!

What happened ….can’t find your posts
It’s a long story, which I will likely share down the line.
Thanks for being a supporter, Lana.

May i make an “off topic” comment? The weather channel beats the global warming drum constantly. I’ve been reading……there are almost 100 volcanoes under west antarctica…..more than 100 around the Arctic circle……
and an untolled number in the Gulf of Mexico. Many, many others under sea. It makes sense…..and they might be the cause of Noah’s flood…….?
What’s amazing is the co-founder of the Weather Channel is a HUGE human-caused global warming skeptic (a friend, John Coleman).
Humanity may be powerful and influential in its own eyes, but we’re incapable of altering the climate on a global scale they way the likes of Al Gore believes.
