The Democrats have a problem on their hands. Their only candidate, Joe Biden, is forced to campaign from his basement during the coronavirus pandemic.
That leaves the Democrats with only one option: mailing ballots to every registered voter in the country — and hope they mail them back.
The House Democrats’ latest coronavirus stimulus package contains billions of dollars to allow local officials in blue states to mail out voter ballots to every registered voter and to legalize the process known as ballot harvesting.
Election officials will be counting over 100 million ballots long after the November election is over.
28.4 million mail-in ballots went missing during the 2012 elections, and the Trump administration fears more shenanigans involving mail-in ballots in November.
President Trump accused Nancy Pelosi of attempting to steal the election for 77-year-old Biden, who reportedly suffers from senile dementia.
The new stimulus package bans states from requiring an ID or social security number from a registered voter requesting an absentee ballot.
States would also be banned from requiring witness signatures on absentee ballots.
A House vote on the new bill is expected on Friday. But Senate Republicans say they will not approve the package because they are in no rush to add more trillions to the federal budget deficit.
