      This is a good idea & states should adopt it - it's how Florida does it. Maybe now, some state legislatures will understand why. I'm skeptical of a federal mandate, however.https://twitter.com/byamberphillips/status/1326169850834792454 …

      Sen Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), a speculated 2024 candidate, introduces a bill that in part calls for election officials to count mail ballots as they come in. That's exactly what secretaries of state in these swing states wanted to happen, but were blocked by GOP legislatures

      I ... think he might be right about this one. I agree with a general skepticism of federal mandates but what’s the problem here?

      Federalizing state & local elections is a big step & one that progressives have wanted for years in order to impose their own agenda. Open that door with great caution.

          I’m not sure “the left wants to do it” is a convincing reason for me to oppose a measure that seems sensible.

          After Trump I am a believer in keeping as much power out of the Executive as possible over the electoral system.

          A federal mandate would act to centralize risk of fraud. State control means lots of independent (of each other) overseers, less opportunity for any one individual to illicitly impact election. Federalism is its own security measure here.
