This is true but only half the story. The federal government is able to incentivize vote-by-mail through federal funds. This has been the center of much debate.
Speaker Pelosi says she will push for these funds in any next round of stimulus.
- eanzenberg 7y agoSo Pelosi is willing to politicize the epidemic, cool.
- nlfwhulsdhouv 7y agoPeepeepoopoo democrats do so much politics peepeepoopoo shut the fuck up.
- mattkrause 7y agoI would maybe not go there on a day where the administration yanked a bat-to-human coronavirus grant because it doesn't "fit with current NIH priorities."
- SuperFerret 7y agoRepublicans can't win a fair election. Just like the founding fathers imagined.
- mauflows 7y agoIsnt remote voting a priority because of the epidemic?
- elicash 7y agoThis is needlessly dismissive. Even red states like TX will likely be forced to allow more mail voting. KY and others will also be doing the same, expanding who can vote absentee in order to deal with a public health issue. Democrats think giving federal funds to states will help ward off recession and also want to prevent outbreaks in the fall. You can argue Democrats are wrong in those views, but states (including states that would prefer not to implement it!) will have to spend a lot of money on vote-by-mail because of decisions (some at court-level) being made that are the result of coronavirus.
- arrosenberg 7y agoIt's super clear you have come on here to be a partisan. Both sides are politicizing the issue (see McConnell wanting the state of New York to go bankrupt). Take it back to Reddit.
