Voter fraud has always been a real thing, a real vulnerability to the system, & hard to trace. But we also know from regular investigation that it's not the mass-scale issue it was in, say, 1982 (100,000 bogus votes in Chicago). So, steps taken to curb it should be modest.

you came so close to making a good point without muddying the waters to protect the president. Good try!

I think party leadership disagrees with you about that second part. They believe that fewer people voting is good for them.

If it’s in the GOP’s best interest for ballot security why have they opposed several measures put forth to do that? Also why have they not passed their own version of a bill?

Mail in balloting already exists. It’s called absentee balloting. There’s a difference between mailing ballots to registered voters who’ve requested them and wholesale shipping millions of ballots across the state without any verification.

They’d be on more solid ground if they’d take the election security threat from Russia seriously & had a general posture towards making sure votes actually count, even if they are mail-in.

Whenever this discussion comes up, I point people to the French system. Incredibly restrictive by US standards, and based on archaic technology of envelopes in a glass box. But very secure and with much higher voter participation than here. No one worries about voter fraud there.

I speak from personal experience, as I grew up in France and voted several times there.
