A deep partisan divide over in-person vs. mail-in balloting became clear during Tuesday’s troubled election in Georgia as well as Wisconsin’s controversial April 7 primary
, voters had 77 percent fewer precincts in which to cast a ballot June 2 in Philadelphia.
While mail-in voting can be more fraud-prone than in-person voting, voter fraud is exceedingly rare and seldom tips the results of major elections, according to experts and reviews of elections. Trump, who has voted by mail himself in Florida, has also indicated that a big concern he has with a Democratic bill in Congress concerning more mail-in voting and other election issues was that “if you ever agreed to it, you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again.
Republican fears were also more pronounced than that of independents and Democrats when respondents were asked which statement they agreed with more: Should the U.S. allow all voters to cast mail-in ballots due to the coronavirus; or should this not be allowed because it jeopardizes election security?
“The first time you do anything you’re going to make mistakes,” said political scientist Christopher Mann of Skidmore College, who studies mail-in voting.
