    Yeah, USPS has said they'd have no problem delivering ballots.

    The problems are going to come in the counting of the ballots before the electoral college's meeting deadline. Some election offices may have trouble hiring enough election workers to count votes in time since "We're all going to die with Covid, and it isn't even safe to vote in person". Probably just hurts states with blue governors who have fear-mongered their citizens.

    I think all Democrats who can vote by mail should do so. :)

    Most people wouldn't get caught. If the "real" voter says they didn't get their ballot and want to vote, and the elections people tell them that the computer shows they already voted (because some fraud mailed in their ballot earlier).... I doubt they'll dust mail-in ballots for fingerprints. So, if you were to mail in a ballot sent to your house but it isn't yours, what are the odds you would be caught?

    They’ll fill out a provisional ballot and they’ll compare the signature. And if it came to my house, I think it would be easy to find out who mailed it lol

    What about being mailed out of your house to the election's office? If the election people stuffed the wrong ballots with the wrong addresses, they have no idea who got what or where they screwed up their own system.

    But yeah, two people voting under one registered voter's name won't cause any additional delays. This election will be clean as a whistle. LOL

    Me 3.

    90% of these
    90% of these new mail in voters aren't afraid to leave for a dozen other reasons, its silly.

    90% is probably a low estimate
