The GOP can never win the ballot harvesting game, so restore mail-in voting to a rare practice only, when necessary, by illness or absence.

That's simply not the case.

Most military are citizens of their home state, and can only vote there. Residing in a place temporarily, does not give you another state's citizenship.
Yes, until congress says otherwise
 

The GOP can never win the ballot harvesting game, so restore mail-in voting to a rare practice only, when necessary, by illness or absence.

22 May 2023 ~~ By Thomas Lifson

Perhaps the most consequential political outcome of the Covid panic that was engineered is the widespread use of mail-in voting in place of actually showing up at a polling station on Election Day. On the spurious grounds that standing in line to vote would spread the virus that was lethal mainly to the infirm and elderly, our entire process of voting was upended, and made highly vulnerable to cheating.
Writing in The Federalist, Joseph Arlinghaus and William Doyle, Ph.D. argue that Republican efforts to match the Democrats’ ballot harvesting efforts are fruitless.
Democrats currently execute a ballot-harvesting game vastly more complex, sophisticated, expensive, and labor-intensive than most Republicans even remotely understand.​
The Democrats’ powerful election-industrial complex consists of two types of institutions: national types devoted to election strategy and policy, and local types, including public-sector unions, devoted to fielding and deploying boots-on-the-ground election activists.​
Public-sector unions comprise a vast potential workforce to aid in solidifying the grip of Democrats on the election process in their states through the sheer manpower they can deploy for vote canvassing, voter registration, assistance in early voting, and ballot harvesting.​
Local urban-based activist organizations also contribute to the left’s army of community organizers. It is where the armies of Democrat vote canvassers and ballot harvesters come from in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, et al.​
Democratic ballot harvesters are guided by sophisticated statistical models and data mining schemes devised by an army of highly skilled, Ph.D.-level data analysts. Republicans have generally disdained this technical aspect of political science and instead published think-tank papers on political philosophy or public policy, leaving the ranks of high-level Republican data analysts generally empty.​
~Snip~
Nonetheless, apparently ending mass mail-in voting is the struggle that they advise, though they don’t come out and say so directly.
If matching the Democrats’ efforts is futile, simply accepting the sudden drastic change originally justified by a questionable “emergency” is a recipe for capitulation to permanent rule by the Democrats and their deep state allies.


Commentary:
The war has started, so returning to “status quo ante” is off the table.
Electoral goals should be:
- ID voting only
- No “drive-up registration”
- Voter registration closes 2 weeks prior to election
- No mail in ballots unless requested 1 month before election and rec’d before election day
- Voter rolls purged every 10 years with census. Must re-register
- No voting season - 1 day / 24 hours for voting only
- Make election day a holiday​
Votes should be counted by midnight on voting day. Those doing the counting must have all their ballots counted or risk hefty jail time; that will prevent counters from stalling and from creating phony ballots. This has become a criminal enterprise in swing states such as NV, MI, GA, PA, etc. Democrats have been preparing and honing cheating methods in earnest since 2020.
The vast majority of affidavits of fraud during te 2020 and 2022 elections came from Democrats and independents who were poll watchers, and judges.
A good example of election fraud was found in Arizona.

No Dim would ever get a vote that way....
 
Nobody is worried about that. Go and vote. Do it in person with an ID on voting day. It’s not like it’s a surprise when this will be happening. Get your ass in there.

Lots of people can’t “get their ass in there”. Disabled people. People in hospitals and nursing homes. People who are serving in the military, or working overseas. People who can’t take time off work during voting hours.

Why must it be in person and only on voting day??? Why can’t people vote when it’s convenient for them????

Why have Republicans in red states closed over 1000 polling stations in poor and minority neighbourhoods, even as tens of millions of voters are registering?

Why must they have a special voter ID? If you have to prove citizenship to register, why must you prove it again to vote. Why isn’t any government issued ID good enough to vote?

I can use any government issued ID to vote, but I needed my birth certificate to register.

Why is the USA the only democracy in the first world which is trying to stop citizens from voting, or making it more difficult to vote? The rest of us are making it easier for everyone to vote.
