39. Here's what the Repuke Party knows ... they should be supporting the mailed ballots
Mon Jun 8, 2026, 10:07 PM

So many of their regular R voters are senior citizens who sit home and watch Faux Noise day and night. Those are people who would definitely prefer to vote via mail.

But Chump pulled the rug out from under them in 2016 when he campaigned AGAINST mailed ballots for ... reasons that make no sense. Later he tried to back away from it and he tried to say that mailed ballots were something the R's should do, but it was way too late by then.

The only legitimate fear used to be that someone who wanted to vote twice could mail a ballot and then go and vote in person. But it's already been proven in the last 3 elections that this will never happen. They get stopped every time. And guess who gets caught? ... It's always R voters who try it and they never get away with it.
