But what's the play? Absentee voting already exists.
This is part of a drumbeat that voting in person is unsafe. California has already mailed ballots in congressional contests .... without the voter needing to ask for a mail-in/absentee ballot.
Here's what happened to some of them ... and they're ripe for harvesting:
The democrats now want both, in-person AND blanket distribution of mail-in ballots ... it's all about the drumbeat, baby, the drumbeat
Tucked inside House Democrats’ new coronavirus bill is language that would create a loophole in states’ voter ID requirements, allowing people to cast ballots without having to prove who they are.
One section of the bill would require states to allow at least 15 days of in-person early voting before Election Day this year, and to also allow voting by mail for any reason, overriding states that have more limited policies.
The new bill would also require that absentee ballots be counted if they arrive up to 10 days after Election Day.
And the legislation says that states that require voter IDs to cast a ballot must allow voters to meet the requirement by self-certifying to their own identity.
