This definitely makes sense
Was Trump just kidding in his 70 attacks on voting by mail? Photo: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images If you’ve been paying any attention to the president and his Twitter feed, you undoubtedly know that he professes to think voting by mail is perhaps the worst thing that has happened to the United States in its entire history . The Washington Post reports:
New private polling shared first with POLITICO showed that Republicans have become overwhelmingly concerned about mail balloting, which Trump has claimed without evidence, will lead to widespread voter fraud. A potentially decisive slice of Trump’s battleground-state base — 15 percent of Trump voters in Florida, 12 percent in Pennsylvania and 10 percent in Michigan — said that getting a ballot in the mail would make them less likely to vote in November….
In Florida, Trump’s people have resorted to distorting the president’s tweets to promote a voting practice he has denounced repeatedly. To be clear — the distinction Trump and the Florida GOP are trying to make between absentee and “mail-in voting” is nonsensical, since anyone in the state can vote by mail and the term “absentee ballot” no longer even exists in Florida’s election code.
