We have close to all mail voting now with how our absentee votes work.
Everyone over 65 can vote absentee, and there are about a dozen other categories.
I’m not advocating that anyone lie, but some of the categories are so vague they are hard to question. Things like “work conflict,” “scheduled doctors appointment,” “ill or caring for someone who is ill,” etc.

With Covid, I think someone could ask for a ballot on basis of illness, and say that they thought they were experiencing virus symptoms like headaches, fatigue, etc.

I just absentee voted in GOP primary because there are no Dem contested races. Three challengers to Lindsey - two are running to the right of him because 10 years ago he was reasonable on immigration policy, but one is a moderate compared to Lindsey. So I will get to vote against the asshole twice this year.

And we have a strong candidate to go against despicable Joe “you lie!” Wilson in the 2nd District.
