Is it cause of covid? But I mean, it was ok to protest during the worst part of covid. Not meaning that as a put down but I am saying if voting Trump out of office is super important as it should be then why does posters on gamefaqs assume people won't vote if they can't do mail in voting?
I don't understand how it works and want to know. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Old people are a consistent voting demographic, and a lot of them are understandably scared of getting sick.
This extends to anyone with health issues, and those who simply cannot make the trip. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard!

Mail-in voting makes it easier for people to participate, and that should be a baseline goal of any functional democracy. That it can reduce the spread of covid, or even just concerns about the spread, is an added bonus.

COVID Guide posted... Old people are a consistent voting demographic, and a lot of them are understandably scared of getting sick. So here is where I am a bit confused. I read people saying if Trump throws out mail votes he wins the election somehow. Is it because people are assuming all his supporters are anti-maskers? Because I believe his base is alot of old people too. And rural communities. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Welcome to gamefaqs where if you want to ask a question, you are a troll. Does seem the weaker approach than just using google. But here, I did it for you. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/01/opinion/sunday/mail-voting-covid-2020-election.html So safe and accurate, in fact, that in five states most or all voters use it, and in three other states more than half do. In those states, elections go off without a hitch. Its true that mail voting increases turnout, particularly among groups that tend not to vote, like young people. Colorado saw a turnout increase of 9 percent when it switched to all-mail voting, and the increase was nearly double that among young voters. In 2016, nearly one in four voters cast their ballots by mail. Still, voting by mail remains a novelty for most Americans, who are used to walking into their polling place on Election Day, registering their vote and handing their ballot to another human being or at least feeding it into a scanner. Its understandable that people would be wary of or confused by a new method. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard!

Trump and his seated base believe so, yes. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/03/30/trump-voting-republicans/ Funnily enough, it doesn't seem to be the case. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/10/us/politics/vote-by-mail.html It is, however, fucked to deny citizens their vote. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ...

also, a lot of people are working during the day, and since it's not a national holiday getting time off to go vote is sometimes out of the option. either because the place is understaffed, or because it's unclear how long it would take to vote that it would be unfair to coworkers. add in how it seems like voting stations are being reduced in democratic areas, as well as hours they are open, having mail in voting is a better option since it enables people to exercise their fundamental right without risking their income

Oh so it is actually young voters and not the old and sickly whom this is about. This makes alot more sense now why people think it will benefit Biden and hurt Trump since younger people tend to vote democrat. Thanks. See? Stop calling users trolls.

It is indeed the old and sickly who are most disproportionately affected. 9% of the youth vote is like 3% of the senior vote. See, it's suspicious to me that you immediately dive in on that one line and magnify it beyond what is stated. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard!

In regards to suspiciousness, I am not sure what the problem is.
If you subtract the old and sickly from both candidates, it would seem to be more or less equal at least in my layman head. Yes that is bad because democracy should have everyone voting but I was trying to understand why gamefaqs users were acting like this was an instant win for Trump. So you mentioned the younger voters and that seems to me at least to then make sense. Also as pointed above the military actually supports Biden more. Stop being suspicious. And if you think a user is a troll, just don't post. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I won't be in my county on voting day, so being able to receive my ballot in the mail and drop it off to a ballot drop off spot means I can still participate in the vote.
I do not plan to mail the vote back, as my faith in the USPS right now is a bit low given everything that has happened. --- Welcome home, shed your skin and expose your bones. Take my hand, follow us into the black so far that we can't get back. ... Copied to Clipboard!
