Love the fact that twitter put a fact check button on Trumps latest rant about how voter fraud will be wide spread if mail in voting is allowed, not that any study ever done has proven it is wide spread at all; in fact its very rare unless you are republican.

POTUS Press secretary uses mail is voting claming the press missed what that means

In a statement emailed after the story published, McEnany said: “Absentee voting has the word absent in it for a reason. It means you’re absent from the jurisdiction or unable to vote in person. President Trump is against the Democrat plan to politicize the coronavirus and expand mass mail-in voting without a reason, which has a high propensity for voter fraud. This is a simple distinction that the media fails to grasp.”

However, Florida does not have absentee voting. Anyone can vote by mail here without a reason. The Times asked McEnany if Florida should change its law to restrict voting by mail to those unable to vote in person.

Guess who lives in Florida,, and she said she never lies

For decades Republicans have developed sophisticated programs to promote and harvest votes by mail. Across this country there are Republicans who would have lost without it. Now suddenly Tweety decides it's corrupt.

That's actually pretty funny, and I can picture Trump saying it in exactly that same way with his Trumpian style. Of course, if he said it, it would no longer be a joke.

AG Barr: “I think there's a range of concerns about mail-in ballots. ...But but one of the things I mentioned was the possibility of counterfeiting.”

NPR: “Did you have evidence to raise that specific concern?”

Barr: “No, it's obvious. It's obvious that it can be done”

Since 5 states have been doing it for a number of years it should be pretty easy to find evidence of fraud in any substantial quantity and Kobach's commission didn't find any either.

But in the end demonizing voting by mail will likely hurt the Reds more than the Blues, solely because of demographics.

Barr said counterfeiting mail in ballots was one of a range of concerns. The ability to counterfeit a ballot is not so far out of possibility as in how ballots have been counterfeited in other ways where the vote was not in person at the polling station.

As you said in post #37 "For decades Republicans have developed sophisticated programs to promote and harvest votes by mail." And there is this comment on harvesting votes by mail in The Federalist: "With ballot-harvesting, paper votes are collected by intermediaries who deliver them to polling officials, presumably increasing voter turnout but also creating opportunities for mischief." Also, in that article there was this "evidence":

In Florida, a Palm Beach Post investigation into numerous 2016 primary races uncovered significant evidence of voter fraud by Democratic candidates, who pushed back on any criticism by claiming racial discrimination.

Three Democratic candidates, County Commissioner Mack Bernard, state Rep. Al Jacquet, and a candidate for state Senate, Bobby Powell, all ordered mail ballots on behalf of constituents, in many cases without those constituents’ knowledge. Then, they either filled out the ballots for them or had them fill out the ballots while the candidates were present in their homes. All three candidates won on the strength of massive margins in absentee votes.

One Boynton Beach couple told the Post that Bernard just showed up at their door one day in August. Joseph Cerfius, a blind Haitian man, said he didn’t even know who Bernard was, or that he was a candidate for office. But Bernard produced a ballot, filled it out on Cerfius’s behalf, then actually signed Cerfius’s name.

“I couldn’t sign because I can’t see,” Cerfius said. “I gave him my voting card number. That’s all I did. He wrote my name.”

It is not unreasonable to see how mail in ballots could be counterfeited in a similar way by those who receive the mailed ballots either by personal pickup as above, or by those who receive them at the polling stations.

Oddly enough they are not in jail, are they?

It's also odd that Barr has no issue making claims in public with no evidence other than hearsay.
Quite the political presentation for an Attorney General, but it's not about the rule of law in this administration.

Looks like he can't win if it is allowed, so try to suppress it and if he can't suppress it he has an excuse for losing. See "millions of illegals voted."

I really can’t believe somebody with a half-million dollar boat talks like this.

Nice work, if you can get it, guess?

This is speculation based on jealousy but I will pacify....

I met my wife when she was 19 and she was obviously swept off her feet.
After 6 years of dating she finally asked me to marry her.
She comes from a typical background,in other words not wealthy.
Nobody I know has worked as hard for their success as she.
The American Dream is alive and well for those with brains and big tits.
36 years later we are still in love
The end

This is presented as evidence but as usual nowhere close to being accurate.
