Of course. I sincerely hope Biden's campaign is prepared to thwart


what is going to be an epic attempt at voter suppression in this election. Polls show way, way more Biden supporters plan to vote by mail. Many Trump supporters don't consider COVID a significant threat, they are incredibly enthusiastic to vote for Trump, so they will turnout in droves no matter what. Trump campaign is already looking at ways to make voting by mail more difficult. My guess is the aim is to make sure ballots are not received until after election day in battleground states where they must be received, not postmarked, by election day. Whether that be by closing down post offices in battleground states, or robbing the postal system of funds, they can do that. Research also shows Democratic voters are more likely to be late mailing in their ballots, and Team Trump knows that too. Couple that with what we saw in primaries in Georgia and Wisconsin, with the absurd wait times and closing of polling places in minority neighborhoods and the deck is stacked way against the blue team. I'll admit to having Trump Derangement Syndrome. But I truly believe the only way he can win at this point is to cheat/suppress votes and he has several avenues to do just that.

Cook Political Report estimated it could cost Biden up to 2%. The polls will tighten. In battleground states that are close 2% could change the outcome.
