Democrats Are Making a U-Turn on Mail-In Voting
|
[PJMedia] Democrats used COVID-19 as a pretext to try and change the way America votes. In fact, mail-in voting, ballot harvesting, and other various and sundry election law changes were part of the reason Democrats refused to debate a narrow COVID relief bill. Because Republicans wouldn’t agree to give up every election security feature we have, you and your family couldn’t get your unemployment benefits extended, schools lost money, and small business owners were left without assistance.
To block the bill, Democrats used the filibuster, which Barack Obama

we will leave that blatant hypocrisy for another time. It is becoming exceedingly clear that Democrats intend to use whatever tools they can to gain power and retain it. Burning down our institutional norms and any semblance of consensus is their obvious goal.
Mail-in voting was a part of this power grab. By drawing out election results, they could gin up their base and keep them irrational and violent mostly peaceful. They have been so kind as to warn us that the only outcome that does not lead to violence in the streets is a Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden

landslide. It is a blatant and disgusting attempt to extort your vote.

now they want you to vote in person. Take your mail-in ballot to the board of elections to ensure it is counted or go to the polls. This is the exact opposite of the Democrats’ previous narrative—that in-person voting would be unsafe due to COVID-19.
Perhaps they finally figured out that mail-in voting puts them at a distinct disadvantage. Democrats and their allies in the media had successfully scared their own voters into voting by mail, but not President Trump’s. According to USA Today:
Thirty-seven percent of registered voters said they are likely to vote by mail in the November election, by receiving a mailed ballot and either mailing it back or returning it in person, according to a new survey released Tuesday by the Democracy Fund + UCLA Nationscape project.
Among them, 48% of voters who plan to vote for Democratic presumptive nominee Joe Biden said they are likely to vote by mail, according to the survey. That’s more than twice the 23% of voters backing President Donald Trump

who said they are likely to vote by mail
This statistic is likely what Hawkfish based its analysis on. The Bloomberg-funded firm said it would look like Trump won on election night, but mail-in votes would come in at a rate of more than two to one for Biden as they were counted. However,

there are a few flaws in that analysis. Axios points out:
- A fresh Pennsylvania state Supreme Court ruling that requires ballots without the inner security envelope be discarded could affect tens of thousands of votes in that swing state.
- In Florida, voters are twice as likely to have their absentee ballot rejected if they’ve never voted that way before, University of Florida political science professor Dan Smith told Axios.
- In North Carolina, "Black voters’ ballots are being rejected at more than four times the rate of white voters," per FiveThirtyEight. Overall, data shows new, younger, black, and Hispanic voters are more likely to have their ballots rejected.
- More than 550k mail-in ballots were rejected during the presidential primaries this year, per an NPR analysis.
That is not all. One election in Paterson, New Jersey, was thrown out due to mail-in voting and suspected fraud. There was also a 20% voter disenfranchisement rate in the party’s own primary in Queens, New York. In Georgia, the secretary of state is also investigating 1,000 ballots alleging that people voted twice. None of this should be a surprise since an analysis of mail-in voting between 2012 and 2018 showed that a one-in-five rejection rate is pretty consistent.
And just today, a massive problem arose in Maryland: 108,000 ballots that were printed off the internet need to be hand-transcribed by poll workers. Both parties need observers there while this mess gets sorted out. Talk about losing your secret ballot.
