Democrats also always want to make it easier to vote, and Republicans want to make it harder.   Elections are won by turnout, and even though there are more Democrats than Republicans, Republicans are generally more motivated to go to the polls and vote.  Trump knows that even though his approval rating is under water, his base is highly motivated, and if he can suppress Democratic turnout, he can win.

I think Republicans just want a legal voting process. I don't feel they are asking too much here.

Then again, I think the Democrats are wrongfully assuming this fraudulent vote by mail campaign will go entirely their way.

Democrats need alternative voting methods to cheat and because their voters are lazy.

Republicans dont want turnout because they understand that most people are dumb.

We send refund checks, census documents, legal documents, and countless other things by mail/online.  Why is voting somehow more likely to be a problem?

If they can [BLEEP] with your vote online, then trust me, they can [BLEEP] with your vote when you use the magic machine in person, too.

Refund checks are sent to people who are alive and have a social security number. I am fine with ballots being the same way.
