Theoretically, we could have fair, honest elections this way.

Theoretically.

Just as I can buy boxes in bulk, fill them with whatever I want and ship ‘em Fedex or USPS, I will do the same with mail-order ballots.

The only reason Democrats would be for it is because they can cheat with it.

No mail-in ballots for elections to federal office. Period.

You know your ballot got to the elections office shredder.

What matters is who counts the ballots.

Anyone who has tried to use USPS “tracking” knows it’s a joke. Evidently election fraud was the whole point of the virus hoax.

Rats will be rats. They’ll manufacture phony tracking codes or hack the GOP ballots so they get lost.

"Theoretically, we could have fair, honest elections this way.

Either you forgot the "/s" indicator or you better change the quality of the drugs you are on... Or, you are a professional troll...

There is, THEORETICALLY, absolutely no chance of fair or honest elections with mail-in voting... Except for the communists who will be in the cellars of their home printing and mailing about 30-million ballots for the dead, undead, illegals, and other "under-served" cockroaches...

There's no chance with the current system, as it is.

The final update is when the notification signals to the voter that their vote has been accepted for counting.

But doesn't tell you if it has been counted or if the ballot is legitimate in the first place. They may have a "system" in some office where once they are "accepted" they are sorted.For those ballots coming from strong GOP districts, maybe 1/3 of them seem to get "misplaced" before the actual counting process.

Once again I ask all libs, even ignoring the voter fraud angle, is how can you rely on the post office that recently announced that it will take several months to get all of the stimulus checks out. Not even expecting a real answer.

Technology.???

Technology run by such icons of pure apolitical neutrality and competence such as Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Susan Wojcicki, and the people who designed the 0bamacare website?

That kind of technology??
