5. You can blame the stupid push for "all mail-in" voting
Now, the one and only way they have to verify voter identification -- assuming they even receive your ballot, which is no longer a certainty -- is to match the signature on the ballot with the signature on the voter registration card they have on file. If the signatures do not match, your vote is shredded. Now that the positive ID of mail-in voters has become a vitally important issue, they are paying a lot more attention to this than they have in the past. You can bet that a lot of people will be disenfranchised because of this.
