They should require absentees to actually be absent. Otherwise, go to the polls.
I’ve voted absentee a few time here in Idaho. I had to go in to the county office show my id and Mark a ballot. It got sealed and placed in a locked ballot box. All that was to go elk hunting. This year I’d have went to the polling location for my district but it’s in a church and they aren’t open. I view this all as stupidity. In person with valid ID is a must. IMHO
