Bofferbrauer2 said: That's true for for many other countries, too, so it can't be just that. For context, in the last election here in Luxembourg over one third of the ballots were mailed in and yet the evening of the day the elections were being hold almost all ballots had been counted already. Also, how are the mail-in ballots more easy to tamper with in the US? |
Well there have been well documented cases in more recent elections of dozens of ballots with the names of dead people on them somehow voting. There's also been instances of tens of thousands of ballots somehow arriving all at once at 1 am when most people were asleep, as well as voting centers blocking the windows of the counting rooms for no explainable reason. It's not the fact that mail-in ballots themselves are the problem. It's the way in which they're implemented here in the US that makes a lot of people lose trust in our voting process. For some reason, the US makes it far too easy for corrupt political groups to meddle with the process, and its a large reason why our elections lately have been such dumpster fires.
And its not just mail-ins either. There was a recent incident in Arizona where 20% of the voting machines in Maricopa county somehow malfunctioned all at once. We are now on Day 6, and we still don't know who the next governor of that state will be. That's not just embarrassing, that's unacceptable.
