Is Trump right, that covid is being used to steal a free and fair election?
mail sorting machines and mailboxes are being removed at a time when Americans can't gather at crowded, indoor polling places. Trump knows vulnerable Americans won't risk waiting in lines in crowded, Democratic cities. And no, just because people can have protests outdoors doesn't mean its safe for people to go to polling stations.

Obama started it: "June 4, 2015 - Nearly half the nation’s USPS mail processing and distribution centers (141) were closed in 2012-13, and another 30 closed in April of this year. Approximately 50 more plants were set to close in July, including Eugene/Springfield. Those closures are now on hold.
As of Jan. 5, the delivery of overnight, in-town first class mail was eliminated nationwide. Two-to-three day service has become three-to-five day service. According to the USPS’ own data, the new standards are only being met approximately 85 percent of the time (prior standards were being met 98 percent of the time)." https://nwlaborpress.org/2015/06/bend-eugene-mail-processing-centers-to-remain-open/
You can go and vote. Both Dr Fauci and Dr Birx have said it is safe as long as the standard precautions are being applied.
People tend to shout and chant at protests. That is a good way to pass on the virus and it is why some churches are closed - all that chanting and singing. Polling stations should be much quieter.
Mailboxes are constantly being removed. There has been a constant renewal scheme going on for decades. Old mailboxes are removed and they are replaced with new ones.
When the postal union sponsors the Democrats then handles many of the ballots - what could possibly go wrong?
so tell me, which governor claiming that going to polling places poses a health risk has also closed his/her state's DMV, welfare, permitting and countless other offices where people line up for hours by the thousands every day of the week?
