About three-quarters of all American voters will be eligible to receive a ballot in the mail for the 2020 election — the most in U.S. history, according to a New York Times analysis. If recent election trends hold and turnout increases, as experts predict, roughly 80 million mail ballots will flood election offices this fall, more than double the number that were returned in 2016.
The rapid and seismic shift in how Americans will vote can be traced to the coronavirus pandemic. Concerns about the potential for virus transmission at polling places have forced many states to make adjustments on the fly that — despite President Trump’s protests — will make mail voting in America more accessible this fall than ever before.
“I have a hard time looking back at history and finding an election where there was this significant of a change to how elections are administered in this short a time period,” said Alex Padilla, the California secretary of state who chairs the Democratic Association of Secretaries of State.

Queshank In nearly every instance there is fraud and misuse involved, even in Oregon link There is a reason the left is pushing for country wide mail in voting, they want indecision and chaos.. They know they cannot win.

They know they cannot win. Your link is circular. Didn't you also predict a (((RED WAVE))) in '18? Indecision and chaos? Sounds more like the world your BUSINESS MAN! inhabits than that of the rest of the country. No doubt the cutbacks at the USPS will cause delays, even worse with the lack of preparation. A POTUS who cares about democracy more than himself would light a fire under the USPS so they ramp up between now and November. Unfortunately, that attribute is sorely missing. :/

Countless members of the Trump Administration have voted by mail, including Trump himself, but that’s apparently a privilege only for the aristocracy.

Actually, they like vote by mail, BUT DON'T want the people of Philadelphia, Detroit, Atlanta, Cleveland, St. Louis, Miami, Baltimore and Houston to vote by mail. Wonder why... Greg

It's blatant and obvious voter suppression.
They struggle to prove how widespread and corrupt the vote is. Remember the commission that was going to look into it back when Agent Orange first won? How'd that work out? LOL!
The "voter fraud" boogeyman will be under a lot of beds this cycle, even more so than normal.

75% sucks. I want 100% of the population voting, don't care how.
A society where everyone cherishes their right to vote, even if it means my side doesn't win.

Sure, even in person voting. You're not wrong. 0.0028% though. If we should shutdown voting for that percentage then you have no excuse for saving lives related to Covid.
In fact, we that rate, we should just shut down the postal system because even a .0001% chance someone could commit fraud by mail is too much. /s
We should go to a cashless society since there's some fraud by passing fake notes. /s
Holy crap, I just realized licenses get sent in the mail... imagine the fraud. /s
