The point of the article is that the latest research shows the popular will favors Trump/the GOP when more low-propensity voters actually vote and that Trump/the wealthy and powerful are working against their own interests by trying to eliminate mail-in voting (which wasn’t the case a decade ago)

Starting with Fox News and the Murdoch Media.

The voter ID point is also impressively disengenuous. It *sounds* like he's making an argument, but he phrases it so broadly that it amounts to nothing. If opposition to voter ID is a huge electoral burden, you have to prove that. If it literallly just costs Dems "a few votes," why do we care?

it's like they missed the part of high school history where it was explained appeasement emboldens fascists

It helps to have a room-temperature IQ or better, and also the ability to see, hear, and read. Qualities that are apparently lacking in almost every corporate leader, university administrator, or high Dem official in America. (Watching Muriel Bowser and Kathy Hochul this week confirms this.)

It's the only way forward.

His reasoning is completely made up, also. Republicans are against mail in voting because they know it’s advantageous to Democrats. Period. And no one is voting against Democrats over mail in voting. Completely fantastical. I don’t think he wants liberals to win another election.

Voting shouldn’t just be easy, it should be mandatory. I think voting is mandatory in Australia.

I think voting by mail is bad Poland, France, Brazil etc don't have it and can avoid this stuff

I also moved from DC to Washington years ago…voting here is the best, so easy, and SECURE.

Mail in voting is also harder to hack

Same. Moved here in 2015 and the voting is so easy plus public services are so great compared to Illinois where I'm from.

I’m wealthy (but not powerful) and I am like many people who live abroad and rely on mail in ballots which we call absentee ballots. We pay our share in taxes but if we can’t be represented except by travelling to a polling booth, that wouldn’t be fair!

moved from same day registration Minnesota to practically illegal requirements (birth & marriage certificates) for married women to register to vote. But, once registered it's easy peasy to vote by mail.
