Donald Trump is losing his high-volume battle against mail-in voting. The Washington Post reports:

A review by The Washington Post of nearly 90 state and federal voting lawsuits found that judges have been broadly skeptical as Republicans use claims of voter fraud to argue against such changes, declining to endorse the GOP’s arguments or dismissing them as they examined limits on mail voting. In no case did a judge back President Trump’s view — refuted by experts — that fraud is a problem significant enough to sway a presidential election.

And evidence shows that mail-in voting is significantly up. The Hill reports:

The ballots already submitted puts the state on track to more than double the 2.7 million ballots that were cast via mail in 2016. A partisan split is already emerging in the number of ballots being mailed in, with 2.3 million Democrats requested mail-in ballots compared with 1.6 million Republicans. Another 1.1 million people not affiliated with either party have requested ballots be sent to them. 

Trump, meanwhile, continues to sow the seeds of doubt. Twitter flagged a message he wrote on Monday about ballots being returned. He cited no evidence for this allegation.

 

Here’s an interesting idea for those worried about sending in ballots by mail.  Jacksonville, Florida has set up a no-mail system for those worried about mailing ballots. News4Jax reports (watch above):

 You can vote now by going to the elections office downtown, requesting a mail ballot in person and then filling it out and dropping it off right then and there, avoiding the mail altogether.

Meanwhile, there are some states that seem to have bought Trump’s argument about mail-in voting issues. The Washington Post reports under the direction of Republican officials, “Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Indiana… are still barring most people from voting by mail during the pandemic.”
