What about it is "shocking"? Please be specific.

Please note that the alleged justification these changes is widespread voter fraud, which has never been shown to exist at a level even close to significant, despite many years of effort [1].

> the only way to do anything is to shove an executive order through the post office to prevent mail fraud.

Or, ya know, make a persuasive case based on evidence of actual fraud and pass a bill in Congress, the way the country is supposed to work?

Yours is a low-effort riposte if ever there was one.

> If you took off your partisan hat, put on your red team hat

A humorous double meaning, almost like taking the hat off and putting it back on again.

But seriously I would expect a stronger argument in favor of these changes from proponents like you, something sourced, especially given the trial runs of these encroachments that've been run in a number of red states that haven't found any significant security issues and just turned out to be a waste of taxpayer dollars, time, and trust.

Do your readers a favor and bring something at least as substantive as the article you're commenting on.

From my perspective this just looks like voter suppression. Your hypothetical edge cases operate at a scale that doesn't matter in the slightest, a fundamental rookie security mistake.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

You supplied nothing to back up your extraordinary claims. Your claims are extraordinary given the almost non-existent issues with mail-in voting. But if you'd like to prove otherwise, be my guest.

Either your head is 6 feet deep in the sand or you aren't really so non partisan

We have had secure elections for a long time, how is it that the only 2 that Trump has presided over are the ones that are a security concern?
