Since any more you need a valid ID to do even the simple things, this has be a stupid argument for years.
It is out and racist and stupid to think black people dont have or can get a valid ID.
Imagine the level of bigotry it takes to assume minorities can't get a valid ID.
Imagine the hubris it takes to add obstacles to voting.
Really------------------------explain to us how the hell it is an obstacle when virtually EVERYONE has a valid ID. Is it too damned hard to reach into your back pocket and get out your wallet????????????
Experts: Someone is more likely to get struck by lightning than to commit voter fraud
“Mail ballots are paper ballots. That means we do have an opportunity to audit all of those ballots,” said Nordon. “But I think people should feel very comfortable with the security of the system.”
As for security, election officials take extra measures to ensure the integrity of the ballot. Firstly, mail-in voting reduces the risk of foreign interference to nearly zero. Mail-in ballots are printed on a specific type of paper with technical markings that are difficult to duplicate.
They also include several local elections like city council, school boards, and ballot initiatives. It means there are thousands of different ballots for our country’s 3,000 counties.
Then you consider the actual ballot itself.
It comes in a secrecy envelope that is connected to each individual voter who needs to sign it. That signature is verified by judges who are sometimes trained by the FBI to detect inconsistencies.
Counties across the country also have system in place that update voter registration, death records, and address changes daily while they go in and cross-reference the data as well to make sure the ballots are going where they are supposed to and people are who they say they are.
