Trump is lying about voting by mail. The amount of fraud is negligible. Trump just doesn’t want people to vote. I am concerned that Republicans will challenge votes to reduce votes for Democrats.
If 7.3% absentees were rejected in a November swing state, it could conceivably cost Dems up to 2% of statewide margin. https://t.co/gTr9X8FDDP

Via the latest ABC/Post poll, 51% of Dems plan to vote by mail vs. just 20% of Republicans, thanks to Trump's attacks. That's unprecedented. https://t.co/jBpoEr9GfZ

Top Republicans have repeatedly raised concerns with Trump campaign officials about such attacks, recognizing they need to expand voting by mail to compete with Dems in a number of closely contested states. Trump clearly unmoved by those concerns. https://t.co/jEvTEY6xkz https://t.co/LP28TMupWb

I just want to reiterate here that it is extraordinarily difficult to forge a ballot and have that ballot be counted. https://t.co/GVVVpTKQr7
