No it isn't. We have had a ton of mail in voting for years now with no issue.
This flies in the face of anyone who ever has believed in preventive measures and maintenance. You don't set up scenarios where it can easily be misused and use arguments of "well, we never tested properly or had the means to test properly if they would take advantage of this system as we are easily setting it up for, so it must be good!

"Hey, we should nuke China and Iran because there is no history that doing those things would actually be bad".

It is a nonsensical argument, and one I doubt you seriously believe. There is no doubt that you actually believe in preventing things happening beforehand and not setting them up to fail. I have no doubt you believe that contraception should be given out for free if requested to prevent pregnancy. And, would espouse that pro-life arguments are flawed because they also wish to restrict protected sex due to the sanctimony of marriage.

You don't throw situations into where they could be abused because you haven't yet to see someone do it (you haven't because it is too hard to prove it and test for it now).

We have ample evidence that similar avenues have been abused via fraud through online and mail services repeatedly, in much more intricate fashions. Because of ample investigating due to it having a monetary effect on tax payers.

Don't say wellll voter fraud could happen but we have no reason to believe it has happened yet so the honor system is working. That is reactionary bullshit. You put in places the systems to eliminate the possibility as much as possible. Not wait for it to happen.

You are the engineer who destroys the motor which takes 8 months to replace with no backup instead of doing scheduled preventive maintenance to assess you needed a backup or to prevent it from happening in the first place. Like, that's nonsense arguing, Chris. You are better than that. It's okay to want voting to be accessible and for voting to be secure. You shouldn't want only the one.
