In the U.S. mail-in voting is a form of voting in which a ballot is mailed to the home of a registered voter who fills it out and returns it by postal mail or drops it off in-person at a voting center. Five U.S. states routinely conduct all-mail elections: Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington and Utah. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic four additional states—California, Nevada, New Jersey and Vermont—and the District of Columbia have pledged to mail out ballots to all properly registered voters for the November 2020 election.

No, changing the standard election process on such a wide scale mere months before an election, when there already exists examples of it causing issues on a small scale, is highly irresponsible. Perhaps in the future after the issues are worked out completely.
@88T9RGX5yrs5Y
Allow this to be decided at the state level.
@38NW3YZ5yrs5Y
Yes, but each ballot must be requested through a verification process akin to absentee-ballots.
@7GP32QV4yrs4Y
No, there is tremendous voter fraud associated with mail-in voting
@RichardYRodgers5yrs5Y
No, voting in person is a better way to maintain the security of our elections, and return to a paper ballot system.
@8BYLJPN5yrs5Y
No, this makes voter fraud much easier.
@8CQ7HBG5yrs5Y
No often times voter fraud happens with mail in voting absentee voting should be the voting process if you cannot vote in person
@8DKN43F5yrs5Y
Yes, but only once it is less risky and less fraudulent.
@8DT8GBP5yrs5Y
There needs to be actual applications and confirmations, not just sending out wide amounts of ballots.
@riddlecongress5yrs5Y
Absolutely not. Mail-in ballots are proven to have massive vulnerabilities to abuse and fraud. Case in point the ballot harvesting in Minnesota for Ilhan Omar.
@8GM9ZSH5yrs5Y
No, because they can be easily messed with and rigged and the traditional way of voting is much more efficient.
@8J4LJGJ5yrs5Y
No, implement a secure online voting process that uses several personal identifiers in order to reduce the prevalence of voter fraud. We have the technology to do so.
@8JFLGHY5yrs5Y
yes, but only for elderly and people with medical conditions that do not allow them safely leave the house
@8MR3KQH5yrs5Y
No, but if the voters have restricted transportation such as the elderly, then yes.
