At best they need some funding to cover overtime  to process the ballots

 Well, absentee ballots are for those who are Physically located outside their voting jurisdiction 
 
Where mail in voting is, as you stated.....

 No, they are for anyone who doesn’t want to or physically can’t go to a polling location for any reason allowed by local law.
 
My mom voted absentee for 30 years because she couldn’t walk.

 absentee ballots are requested because the people that request them want to vote, the "mail-in" are just being sent out in volume....because democrats want to try to get as many stupid, lazy and dead people voting as possible because it increases their chances

 Stupid might just help Trump, lazy benefits nobody, dead doesn’t really happen.
 
Don’t know why making voting safer in a pandemic is a bad thing. It’s one of the most important institutions we have and yet one more Trump wants to undermine.

 Really love to see where that's happening.. Here in Massachusetts every registered voter had a application  for a mail in ballot sent to their home.. and had the choice go to a polling site or fill out the application to receive a MAIL IN BALLOT
 
But why should facts matter

New Jersey will send mail-in ballots to ‘everybody’ for 2020 election, despite Trump’s attacks, governor says
  
New Jersey will send mail-in ballots to all registered voters for the 2020 presidential election while still offering the option for voters to cast their ballots in person, Gov. Phil Murphy said Friday.
 
“It doesn’t matter what party you’re in, everybody gets a ballot,” Murphy announced in a CNN interview.
