Seemingly terrified of losing his reelection bid at least in part due to mail-in voting, President Trump continued to be dishonest about the processs legitimacy in a tweet so packed with lies its surprising he was able to fit them all within the character count.
Trumps Sunday morning factless tweet began with a proclamation: The United States cannot have all Mail-In Ballots. What followed was a greatest hits list of falsehoods, conspiracy theories, doctoring of documents and physical intimidation, all topped with something seemingly straight from a QAnon forum: Trying to use Covid for this Scam!
The United States cannot have all Mail-In Ballots. It will be the greatest Rigged Election in history, Trump wrote. People grab them from mailboxes, print thousands of forgeries and force people to sign. Also, forge names. Some absentee OK, when necessary. Trying to use Covid for this Scam!

Then late Sunday night, Trump went back to this original tweet and quote tweeted himself to let everyone know that his earlier convoluted message was actually easy to understand, writing, The Democrats are trying to Rig the 2020 Election, plain and simple!

They are running out of ways to try to block people from voting and are getting desperate.
I have voted by mail for over 10 years. it is safe, practical and I am able to actually track my vote to ENSURE that is is counted correctly. Because of this, I also am able to vote in all of the local elections - which is also very very important.
There are several confirmations - you have to put your identification in there, complete many questions, and then when you seal your ballot, you have to sign across the seal, showing that it was signed after it was sealed shut. an extra level of confirmation that it was not tampered with.
Within a week you can go to the website and track your vote. It will show when it was received and your voting decision (to make sure that it was not tampered with). I feel more secure doing it this way then with the voting machines that are owned and operated by the GOP and now the T__p crime family.
if you have the option - I recommend you sign up for it.
