The fiasco I’m referring to is Trump claiming voter fraud when there isn’t any (or at least any that would make any difference).
What I’m gathering from you guys is that the problem isn’t with the mail in ballots but rather the counting process, and that states should start the counting process earlier, which I’m 100% on board with.
Thanks for the info guys!
