Meanwhile most military use mail-in voting because they have to.

As if there will be any voting left soon anyway.

Didn’t he move it his last term

Biden rescinded the order, citing costs.

Even Republicans in Colorado (and Colorado Springs) support mail-in-voting.

[–] ProIsh@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Every republican voter supports mail in voting, for themselves. Like every convenience and or social program.

You can take mail in voting from my cold dead hands. It’s incredible.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Can't hack mail in voting. Easy as that.

Just political spoils IMHO. Alabama is red, Colorado is blue. More money goes to Trump's supporters

Alabama also is historically the endpoint for Operation Paperclip rocket scientists.

So more facism sympathy there.

I read in another thread that this will cost billions and basically stunt their ability to do anything for a long while up to, during, and after the move - during which foreign enemies will be able to make strides.

[–] ProIsh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

This is can believe. Just more chaos and confusion. And it'll work

Throw up anything to distract from the Epstein files and see what sticks.
