Maybe future elections should be limited to in-person voting with limited exceptions. Like..... in Canada?
EDIT: I get that this was done because of Covid. Should these votes not have been counted in advance?

Your whole post presumes there is a higher risk of fraud for mail in ballots. Any research being done into this proves that is not the case, and that it is actually more secure.
You're just really falling for the illusory truth effect that Trump is propagating.
