"Vladimir Putin, smart guy, said you can't have an honest election with mail-in voting," Trump told Fox News Channel's "Hannity" after a nearly three-hour meeting between the leaders in Alaska. "He said there's not a country in the world that uses it now." https://www.reuters.com/world/us/tr...us-should-not-have-mail-in-voting-2025-08-16/

Election machine software, fake voter rolls, in blue states & blue cities the politicians are installed. Trump must know by now, he's just another moderate trying to have it both ways. Maga is tired of half measures and forgotten promises.
That statement is misleading without context. Here’s a breakdown: 1. Mail-in voting and fraud rates: Numerous studies (including by the Brennan Center for Justice and the Heritage Foundation’s database of election fraud cases) show that voter fraud of any kind in the U.S. is extremely rare — including mail-in voting. Mail-in ballots do present different risks than in-person voting (for example, they can be intercepted or misdelivered), but documented large-scale fraud through mail ballots is vanishingly uncommon. 2. Ballot harvesting (also called ballot collection): This is when someone collects and submits completed mail-in ballots on behalf of voters. In some states it’s legal with restrictions (e.g., family members or caregivers may return ballots). In others, it’s prohibited. The potential for abuse is higher here than in strictly in-person systems, because it introduces another step where mishandling could occur. However, confirmed widespread abuse cases are very rare. The most famous example is the 2018 North Carolina congressional race, where illegal ballot harvesting did affect the outcome. 3. Security measures: Signature verification, barcodes, ballot tracking, and strict chain-of-custody rules make large-scale fraud through mail-in ballots extremely difficult in practice. Courts and bipartisan election officials have repeatedly affirmed that U.S. mail-in voting is safe and secure overall. ✅ So: The statement “Mail-in voting is prone to ballot harvesting and fraud” overstates the risk. A more accurate version would be: “Mail-in voting carries different security risks than in-person voting, including the possibility of ballot harvesting, but evidence shows actual fraud cases are extremely rare.” Would you like me to give you a quick comparison of fraud cases per million mail-in ballots vs. in-person votes? That gives a sense of scale.
magturds will claim voter fraud even when their guy won the election... can't win with the unintelligent
