No state should go along with the Democrat scam of early voting. Either you show up on election day or you don’t care enough to vote. Many employers gave you time off to go vote. And only the really old and disabled should get absentee ballots

Early voting is always a Democrat initiative. No Republican in a state legislature should agree to it

Virtually everything we've ever done to "empower" the voters has driven us more firmly toward the democrats because population centers win. The 17th amendment is a perfect example of what happens when a popular vote chooses senators. Here in Michigan Senators are chosen by Detroit, Ann Arbor, and Flint while the rest of the state votes republican.

“No state should go along with the Democrat scam of early voting. Either you show up on election day or you don’t care enough to vote.”

I both agree and disagree with this. I do believe that early voting opens up a greater degree of fraud. But for people like me who travel for work, and can’t for sure say whether I will be home or not on election day (even the week before), I need to be able to vote early. I do not believe in early voting like Ohio where it is open for a whole freakin’ month, but early voting for a week seems reasonably reasonable to me. I will not vote absentee if I can all help it, as who knows what really happens to the vote. Plus the way the machines are here in Nevada, there is a paper record generated at the machine that you can actually look at and verify before you press “done”.
