I live in Colorado. We do all of our elections by mail-in ballots. The percentage of suspect ballots is a rounding error away from zero.
I'm a left-wing social justice warrior. I don't vote, the DNC already voted for me and I just obey.
They had to throw out 20% of the votes in Paterson New Jersey, so why exactly is it strange to think that voting by mail is not safe? imagine 20% of the votes thrown out on national scale? There would be carnage.
Also, there is a big difference between vote by mail and absentee ballots. Absentee ballots have to be requested and are thus tracked, while mail-in ballots go to everyone and are much harder to track, also Dr.Fauchi, who is one of the top experts on cornona virus has said that voting in person is completely safe so long as safety protocols are followed.

Mail in voting is safer digital voting.
If you compromise 1 mail-in vote that is one mail-in vote affected.
If you compromise one digital vote, you're more likely to be able to affect all votes.
So inherently digital voting systems are actually less safe from attacks.
Tampering with physical voting is a linear style attack. You have to put the same amount of effort into each vote.
Temporary digital votes is a non-linear style. For each successful tampering it requires less and less effort to compromise subsequent votes

As an Oregonian, I love voting my mail. It's so convenient, and I like filling my ballot out at home where I can take my time and look things up as I fill it out. It always seems weird when I see people on TV in line to vote.
I moved to Oregon about 10 years ago. I was pleasantly surprised when I was automatically registered when I went to get my new ID and delighted when I learned about vote by mail.
Is it nice, yes. Is it easy as hell to rig? Also yes.
@@thinkinginsidethebox6552 Please provide evidence.
Every time I hear something about Oregon it convinces me more that it's a beautiful state, and probably of the best to live in.
That's because Oregon is a decent state run by decent people and more interested in allowing it's people to vote rather than rigging the election so that one party always wins we many red states do (and this is a view from the outside, from the UK, although I've been to Oregon a number of times and find the state and the people who live there very welcoming whatever political views they have).
In Switzerland, when there is a vote (and Switzerland has a LOT of voting) it happens over the weekend and the polling stations are open all day Saturday and on Sunday morning to avoid people having to abstain due to work (voting by post is also allowed, and is the method used by the majority).
In Canada, even if you have to work, the employer has, by law, to give you three hours to go vote or, if time issues, the whole day off.
In addition, there is nearly no queue to vote at the polling station as there are many of them and very near. There is also no need to register to receive a ballot as ballot are automatically send to where you live using the data of the state of where you live. In fact a copy of the ballot can be used as a document to prove where your live. The way you know that you have turn 18 is when you receive a Ballot. I understand that organizing election for a country that is as big as the US is difficult, however I'm wondering if the US even try to improve theire system.
How do poll workers vote? Turn in their ballots when they go on shift?
Sam Tito Yup, or vote in advance by mail.

A somewhat more lighthearted topic suggestion: Last year, George RR Martin gave *formal, written* permission for fans to physically kidnap and restrain him, Misery-style, if he did not have his long-awaited novel finished by this year...which he didn't. Now, this was obviously a joke (although he was seemingly confident at the time that he could get it done), but hypothetically speaking, if some zealous fans actually carried out said actions, could Martin's written permission be used as their defense in court when they are inevitably caught??
You can’t give someone permission to break the law. So I doubt his hyperbole would be used as a legitimate defense.
@@dr.floridamanphd but kidnapping is only crime as it is without permission. The question here is would prior permission having been given count?
Hard to tell. But it's like how hitting someone is assault and a crime, but with prior permission it's just kinky
E Bishop, if you kidnap someone it’s done without consent.
You’re right that if you hit someone without permission it’s a crime, but with permission it’s kinky.
But if I shoot someone, even with permission and in a non-lethal area, that’s still assault with a deadly weapon.
Some things you can’t rationalize away.
Bro I stopped caring about Martin years ago. Sanderson, now there's an author who actually works for a living.
It would be kidnapping if at any point during it he expressed that he was not willing to carry it out.
"This is strictly speaking Not Factual." Lawyer speak for " liar liar pants on fire"

To be fair, "lying" implies that Trump knows the truth and is deliberately saying the opposite thereof. Is it technically a "lie" if Trump is just an ignorant fool talking out of his ass? Flip a coin.
Not exactly lying has to be intentional. And if you accuse someone of lying you got to prove they were deliberately misleading people. Hence why "strictly speaking Not Factual" is such a powerful phrase. Because it neither accuses of deliberate misleading nor takes it off the table for the jury.
@@SaiyanHeretic That's the problem with Trump. He rarely lies, he just never understands whenever people tell him he is wrong, so he keeps telling the same... untruth... without ever lying!
@@sebastianlavallee706 When he realizes that even Fox viewers know he is lying, he just starts saying the opposite in a way that is still lying.

This type of information should be Required Understanding before a person graduates high school. Know your voting rights or stay in school.
Civics is so important
The Dept. of Education removed the mandatory civics class that used to be taught in 8th grade. In fact many school districts would not allow you to graduate unless you finished this course. The left which controls the Dept of Education does not want people to know how the government works or for people to know their rights. This allows the progressives to more easily manipulate and indoctrinate the ignorant youth when they do not know these things. The Dept of Education also removed the mandatory course in home economics, so that the youth would not learn how to manage a budget, use credit, file taxes, and other general take care of yourself once you are an adult kind of things so that the left can instead get people to rely on the government to do these things for them.
Good thing I know what the cells in a leaf look like though, right?
True but most people don't care to retain or learn the information. In my area it's required to graduate to take a government and economic class both with end of the year projects. Yet the amount of people who don't know simple concepts after the courses are high af.
Even if you give it to everyone some people just don't care to learn it therefore they wouldn't.
@ALSO-RAN ! I actually went on to get a biology degree and work in a science field now, but I still call it absurd to expect everyone to study the variety of subjects in public schools. I mean if there were time and they had interest, sure a basic working knowledge is great...but not at the cost of learning valuable understandings that allow someone to function in our culture.
Mortgage payments, voting rights, marriage law and tax calculations? Nah...they can figure all that out on the fly, let's make sure we go over circle math for an entire year it'll make kids "smarter". >_>;
Also, Trump was totally for mail-in voting in states where he expects them to go for him (Florida), soooo
There is nothing here but the pursuit of naked power
@John Frylock you mean absentee, he requested it because he works out of state, duh.
Its a matter of scale, absentee balloting does not happen on the same scale so the deficiencies in its design is not as relevant as it would be if everyone got ballots sent to them.
@@Makrillo I guess the deficiency would be the vulnerability of mail-in voting to a corrupt postmaster general who tries to suppress voting by slowing down the entire postal system. Otherwise, it works really well. Speaking as someone who has been using the mail-in system for 20 years.
Actually, the one drawback we've had in a past was the lack of return postage, since it can be hard for people to get a single stamp. This year, all the ballots come with prepaid return postage, so that's no longer a problem. Even in the past, I sometimes mailed my ballot, and sometimes dropped it off into a ballot box at the library, or county building.
Which brought up another question, as Portland (and other cities) have growing homeless populations. I just looked that up, and it's possible to register to vote using a shelter, park, or the office of the county clerk, if a voter lacks a residence. So, that deficiency has been addressed as well.

@@jumboshrimp_2234 but he legally doesn't live in Florida, he spends only 2-3 days(max) a week there, his literal home should be the White House. Isn't the description something about having to spend 51% of your time somewhere?
So it should be mail-in voting.

He's obviously decidedly anti-Trump. Biased channel, at least when it comes to politics.
@@Fortaz107 To be fair, the truth has a well-known liberal bias.
@@Fortaz107 how?
When Mark Meadows was told there is no evidence of mail in voter fraud he responded "there's no evidence that there's not either." What kind of argument is that?
Lawyer: "Well judge, we think this man is guilty of murder."
Judge: "What is the evidence showing this man committed the crime?"
Lawyer: "We don't have any evidence that shows his guilt, but we don't have any evidence that proves his innocence either, so he must be guilty because he could have done it."
This is the GOP logic.
It's a "No U R" argument
Thats "Dark Star Phenomenology" Look it up, Love that Bomb 20...
It could be worse...
*it could've been the Chewbacca defense*
_"there's no evidence that there's not either."_
Heh, heh. That doesn't surprise me in the slightest, because that's the response I often get from Christians when I ask them for evidence - just *one piece of good evidence* - that their god exists. "Well, there's no evidence that he doesn't!"
My point is that the GOP is faith-based, not evidence-based. There's a reason why evangelical Christians are - along with white supremacists - among Trump's biggest fans. Reality is whatever they _want_ it to be.
And if you don't _care_ what the truth is, if you don't _care_ to distinguish reality from delusion and wishful-thinking, then you're not going to care about the evidence. It's that simple.
It's actually much worse than that. You could argue "innocent until proven guilty" for the murder, and "better safe than sorry" for the mail.
However, *there is evidence that there isn't widescale mail in voter fraud. We've been doing it for decades.*

Just FYI.
How does sending registered voters ballots hurt rural voters? Aren't they actually getting more of their votes counted by being able to vote by mail?
You're absolutely correct - in some places, allowing mail in voting actually favors Republicans because of the demographics of people who mail in vote there (Florida being an obvious example).
ALSO-RAN ! Because it doesn’t actually improve his odds. It does make it easier for people in rural areas to vote and may increase his electoral support in a lot of those areas but there’s is simply way more democratic voters and left leaning independents that it would actually tank most Republican support nation wide. That’s why it’s better for him to suppress the vote altogether because the odds of him wining after destroying the democratic process is greater than having a fair election.
@@rerecroz. Exactly. As the overall number goes up, the republican percentage goes down. That's why the crafty republicans in Wisconsin target their suppression in Wisconsin.

"This is strictly speaking Not Factual."
Meh, let's add a bit more euphemism, shall we :
_The statement presented before us would not appear to exhibit the benefit of being sufficiently supported by any scientifically demonstrated evidence that would exonerate it of being categorized as gross inaccurate speculation. Hereby, we can conclude, at the very least, that this statement can not remotely be considered by any intellectually competent and honest person as a claim with any semblance of truth._
The version I used when responding to lying tech support callers was "Actually, that turns out not to be the case."
You forgot "Void where prohibited." 😁
i was thinking the same thing he has a video of him just rambling on with no actual data or any kind of supporting evidence to back either side of this clearly if doing you're research will show that he is speaking recklessly about a subject that he has not done the proper research on or even worse with holding the factual evidence that can easily be found proving that what he is trying to promote that fraud in mail in voting is a extremely flawed and unsafe way to vote and what he is doing buy not presenting the facts of this matter is dangerous and reckless and he should be ashamed of himself for not being honest that or not having done the research to properly educate him self before trying to then educate other's who may take his word's as truth and not question him like a normal person who thinks for there self just a shameful thing to see from legal eagles channel
@@johncalia8598 That's not at all what my comment was about... It was a joke and clearly you didn't get it! Let me explain. His phrase "This is strictly speaking Not Factual" is an euphemism, which means it's a more gentle and soft way of saying "It's wrong". So, to mock his use of euphemism - which is clearly a habit he developed as a lawyer - I rephrased what he said using an extreme amount of euphemism.
This comment is also an euphemism. I could have simply replied "woooosh!"

I'm not even 30 and I've always voted by mail. And with all these long California measures it takes me at least two days to fill out my ballot. I look up all the different things that are the ballot and figure out what voting yes or no means and looking through the candidates websites. I always turn in my ballot in person on election day.

My mother says: only those who vote have the right to complain about the government. I think it's easier to manipulate a voting computer than thousands of analog postal votes. By the Way: Since 1957 there has been postal voting in the Bundestag election in Germany, without Problems.
It at least opens up the potential to change thousands of votes with a single intervention, where the ballots would need thousands of individual actions to achieve. Send in a request, collect forms, fake/fill out, send back in... it's tedious, slow and does not change much unless you REALLY were dedicated.
I have a right to complain about whatever I want.
So if both candidates are horrible choices for me, and I don’t vote for either because of that, then for some reason I can’t complain about the government?
Wanna know why?
Germany uses a community-based resident registration system. Everyone eligible to vote receives a personal polling notification by mail, some weeks before the election. The notification indicates the voter's precinct polling station. Voters must present their polling notification and if asked a piece of photo ID (identity card (compulsory in Germany), passport, form of identification). As a rule identification is not required other than by the polling notification. If the voter cannot present the notification, a valid ID and an entry in the register of voters can qualify for voting.[13][14]
Electronic voting systems fail to achieve the most important requirement for a vote. Anonymity and transparency. Anonymity can't be achieved because the person needs to be idetified on a computer at the moment during the vote. Transparency can't be achieved because no one knows what happens with your vote in the background.
Every single IT specialist will shiver in horror if you ask him about if electronic voting is a good idea.
Voting by mail is potentially worse than your machines. Here in South Africa people seem to "find" whole boxes of ballots for a particular party, as well as discarded boxes in particular regions of the country. Don't think that this will be any safer than your voting computers.
"If you're watching this channel, you're an adult." Uh-uh, yeah, sure, totally. Don't mind me.

"More people voting benefits the larger party." I'm so shocked. How could this have happened?
And I'm genuinely not trying to be a huge dick, but it is admittedly frustrating hearing so many people who don't care to hear how people come to crazy conclusions, and would rather just assume they are crazy instead of rational and coming to different conclusions. People can hold opposing views and both be right. what works for some will not for others. And what has been abused before can most certainly be abused again when a change is made to the system without proper forethought.
Personally I think the decision to push en-masse mail-in-voting will result in greater dissatisfaction of the outcome. If Trump wins, the media will claim it was voter fraud, and if Biden wins many people will assume it was due to mail-in-votes. worse yet, they'd likely be right, because the majority of democrats live in cities that are promoting it the most.
WORST yet, if the votes result in a Trump win that gets overturned by late mail-ins (most likely, as rural places are voting in person more than cities), NO-ONE will be satisfied. there isn't even a precedent for it happening. De-facto Trump would win due to deadline, but the votes would say otherwise after the fact. lose lose.

In 2012 I went to vote, I was told I had already voted because someone voted for me , they signed my name And no ID was checked , I was turned away.. then the media tells me voter fraud doesn’t exist ..
If what you're saying is true (which having voted a few times in my life seems very suspect) fraud exists everywhere. No one is saying voter fraud NEVER happens. It's just not the widespread issues losers (or people who are afraid of losing) make it out to be.
@@silentj624 it’s hard to tell.. in my instance I obviously complained to the very nice poll workers but nothing happened. There was no follow up, I was never contacted by anyone.. They allowed me to fill out an absentee ballot (2012) but I’m not sure if it was even counted .. not trying to be conspiratorial, it’s just weird when something like that happens to you and then the world says it doesn’t happen ..
@@mackretro1961 voter fraud just doesn’t happen as widespread as the right makes it out to happen. There have been very few instances. Poll workers give up a lot of their time to get training and give up a few days of their life for no reason other than they believe in our democracy. It’s difficult to know exactly what happened in your situation but various mistakes could have happened. It is possible that the poll worker didn’t ask for an ID (but that’s not very likely since poll workers are trained) it is possible that someone else whose name was on the list right above or right below you voted and poll workers accidentally checked off your name instead of theirs. Poll workers are human and mistakes are possible. As long as we continue to have people processing ballots (which I think people prefer people run polls instead of have technology do it) the idea that human error can happen must be accepted. If something like this ever happens again you should call your Secretary of State and let them know that poll workers are not being careful, perhaps they can receive more training if enough people complain. Another option for you to help prevent voter fraud is for you to volunteer to be a poll worker yourself.
@@mackretro1961 I am sure it does happen to a small extend. nobody is denying that. and your case is also very different from what is described by trump. you were voting in person.

I mean you had around 150 million votes cast with thousands and thousands of people involved in processing of those votes, and you had observes who really really wanted to see their side winning and thus highly sensitive to anything which(often in retrospect and with enough encouragment) could have seem out of ordinary. The difference this time is you have a person who projected himself as someone who never loses who clearly lost, who yells fraud(everytime he does lose), and encourages people to report anything suspicious, however silly it seems. That's not an indication of wide spread fraud, that's grasping at straws.
How many pages do you believe Democrats could have got the last election if they yelled fraud and started collecting affidavits of "stuff which seemed suspect" ? 0 ?
"No Republican would get elected if more people voted" has the same energy as "we would have fewer covid cases if we tested lesser" to me

I think that is misiturpiting what Trump said. He refered to if mail in voting was implemented. Not saying that more people voting would mean he would lose. Just look at the last election to prove that, HC had the popular vote, but lost.
But the COVID thing is true.... we only have more “cases” because we are performing more tests and reporting the results unlike China *cough cough*
@@jacobluciano8657 that's not how that works... that's not how that works at all... consider you have 24 people in a room and 6 of them have a case of Generic Plague (GP). You conduct 6 random tests that report that 2 people have GP. How many people in the room have GP?
@@jacobluciano8657 Who cares about China? You also have significant more cases than India, all of Europe combined, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and every other "good" country.

As an Australian, I'm incredibly thankful that we have mandatory voting and that we use STV (Single Transferrable Vote) rather than First past the post.
Should rather have compulsory non-voting.
Hi Aaron,
As an Aussie I have total contempt for our voting system - we may as well be in Soviet Russia. What you need to understand is the three key rules.
1. You must vote ie it is compulsory and you get fined if you don't
2. We have preferential voting (STV)
3. You must put a preference against each candidate ie it is exhaustive preferential voting
Like a lot of democratic countries we have two major parties. So rule 3 says you must put one of them second last. The corollary of rule 3 is that we must vote Liberal or Labor (US folk that is roughly Democrat and Republican). It is compulsory to vote Laberal (Labor or Liberal) is the consequence of this. In the US it would be you are forced to vote Democrat or Republican.
The following corollary is that in Australia if there is a common policy between the two major parties you cannot vote against that policy. You are forced to vote for one of the majors and hence vote for the joint/shared policy that has thrown you out of work and ruined your life.
How's that for a fine democracy?? Of course it is easily fixed by either making voting non-compulsory or by making it non exhaustive preferential. That forces the majors to go to the effort of getting the people out to at least put them second last.
Of course the last person to advocate non-exhaustive voting (Albert Langer) was shoved in the clink at Her Majesties' pleasure. (US folk that means an indefinite jail until they think he will mind his manners better. Fairly Totalitarian huh, even if killing him would be taken as excessive).
So Aaron I wouldn't be too thankful though we have some things to be proud of. The Australian Ballot as the US calls it. First country with universal male franchise and second with universal female franchise.
Compulsory exhaustive preferential voting is definitively not one of them. So I will not vote as it is the only way I can avoid voting Laberal and their share common policies.
Agree with you Aaron, ignore the other peeps in this thread that are just spouting nonsensical hot air
@@rictechow231 Except that really doesn't work since the only way one of the major parties gets elected when you put them last and second last, is if your preferred candidate was never going to win anyway. So putting the majors "equal last" might make you feel slightly better about yourself, but it accomplishes little else. Unless of course lots of people do it and noone gets elected. That would be pretty silly then. The best way to get change is to campaign for the more minor parties. That's how we've ended up with independents, the Greens and Trump Lite in parliament.
Mandatory voting just seems so undemocratic.
Watching this over a year later is quite the experience.
As a university student, if absentee voting did not exist, I would not be able to vote without missing lectures because for some reason we have elections on Tuesdays, and while voting is very important, I can not miss a lecture to travel so far to vote. Absentee voting is very very helpful to many sorts of people, not just university students!
Also in terms of voting security, I had to get my absentee ballot notarized, I had to sign for my ballot when I received it, and I had to personally hand in my ballot sealed in its original envelope to the post office. (This was for a state runoff election and a local city/county election)
I'm glad to hear this. Fortunately Trump agrees with you. He is not targeting Absentee ballots as stated, he is targeting universal mail in voting. There is a significant difference between absentee ballot and universal mail in voting. Only about 50% of the population actually vote, meaning if everyone who actually voted requested a ballot they would only send ballots to about half of all registered voters. This is not an insignificant difference. Please look into the disaster that was the recent New Jersey election. Only about 50% of the sent ballots were returned, and 20% of those were rejected.
@Psilocybe Cubensis "The lawyer in this video and reality itself disagrees." The lawyer in this video does not really explain the differences between the 2 systems as he is highly politically motivated. And your claim that "reality itself disagrees" Is simply not backed by anything. Your entire comment summed up was "NO! YOUR WRONG!" without any evidence or actual information.
-> I believe you are confused by the terminology and function. Absentee ballots, even those that require no reason, must still be requested. _Universal_ mail in ballots on the other hand are sent to all registered voters regardless of whether or not they were requested. And the request part is what is important here. In the link below "_all_ mail in voting" is used in place of "_universal_ mail in voting" but they mean the same thing.

@@birthdaygnat8314 you know the word assume ? that is straight from a lawyers perspective.
@Jay Torres as it should be, and as his attorney said it would be.
Mail in voting is safer digital voting.
If you compromise 1 mail-in vote that is one mail-in vote affected.
If you compromise one digital vote, you're more likely to be able to affect all votes.
So inherently digital voting systems are actually less safe from attacks.
Tampering with physical voting is a linear style attack. You have to put the same amount of effort into each vote.
Temporary digital votes is a non-linear style. For each successful tampering it requires less and less effort to compromise subsequent votes
Exactly, whatever method you figure how to hack in and change the votes means you can just use that same attack again on all of their different systems in all of their computers.
Even if you managed to break into a room somewhere in some zip code somewhere you've only changed that specific neighborhood
Agreed. I think Digital voting is another attempt at voter suppression. The mail system is not exempt. if the "one in charge" decides to re-route the voters ballots from a zip code area in, let's say, the garbage, no one will ever know.
Very well explained, super noodles!
@@katrand5357 thank you
This misrepresents gaining access to a digital system as being equivalent to gaining access to one person's mail-in vote.
The process involved in gaining access to a digital voting system is complicated, and requires having physical access to the system in an extremely obvious way for several minutes, often while a very loud alarm is going off, OR having someone with authority to access the device willing to unlock it for you and everyone around them willing to look the other way.
The process involved in tampering with mail-in votes involves acquiring ballots from people dumb enough to give them to you or who you can access their mail before they do to steal their ballots, then taking them home in bulk to tamper with at your leisure. OR having someone with authority to access the ballots after they have been unsealed willing to allow you access to them and everyone around them willing to look the other way while you grab them and replace them with ones you pre-filled out.
Neither is a practical way to tamper with votes. You either get caught while the alarm is blaring or while you're stealing from people's mailboxes, OR someone doesn't look the other way. Your votes are safe either way. Claiming they aren't safe (either mail-in or electronic) is a form of disenfranchisement because it discourages people from taking the time to vote when they think it won't be counted.
It's amazing how many of these videos end up with "The President cannot do what he says he wants to do."
It's almost like Trump and his busybody staff don't actually know what they're doing while in office.

Trump or no Trump, literally everything we do in this country encourages an unrepresentative final result:
1) Election Day is a weekday which isn't a holiday
2) Millions of people are struck from the voting register for (often dubious) convictions
3) Every state manages its own vote, so there is no uniformity of ballots or vote collection (or in hours of voting, or in acceptable proof-of-identity/residence documentation)
4) Gerrymandering
5) The Electoral College
6) TV outlets report results in real-time, influencing voters in states whose polling stations haven't closed yet
Literally no other country which purports to have open, democratic elections does ANY of these things...
As a European, I do kinda wonder why your system haven't collapsed in on itself yet. Seems to breaking at it seams from lack of proper support and funding that lead to both human and mechanical errors pilling up along with blatant partisan gerrymandering rather than actual fraud by the voters themselves.

Here in Colorado it's been vote-by-mail for years. Probably why it's (marginally) remained a blue state.
Explain why mail-in makes Colorado blue. Utah also has mail-in and is one of the reddest states. I live in and Washington state and haven’t had a Democrat represent me in the state senate or house since I moved out of the Seattle metro (the only liberal part of Washington) to the boonies in 2009. Every election was mail-in. I think Colorado might be blue because it’s urban population has dramatically increased and the Dem party platform is currently much more appealing to urban voters.
Your state stays blue because of Denver. Most of the population there votes democrat. The rest of the state, which is where the farmers and ranchers live tend to vote GOP. Just look at the difference between Denver area and a small town like Rifle. It's typical in most states. Even California, up north they are more conservative farmers than the larger counties like LA in the south.
A judge in Cedar Rapids Iowa just threw out 50,000 ballot requests because they had address prefilled on the request forms they sent. I confirmed on my ballot request the information was correct, added my drivers license number, and signed and dated it and for some reason that is not considered a legitimate ballot request. Its just voter suppression plain and simple. If they are doing this to democratic leaning cities in a small state like Iowa I can imagine whats happening in swing states that are big enough to make a difference

How would you know. Politicians there run around broadcasting their crimes do they?
@Psilocybe Cubensis He isn't...
@Psilocybe Cubensis While I appreciate you're defence of mail-in voting, that's not what thisguy is saying. A major reason for most of the US archaic voting systems is because the when voting is both difficult and non-compulsory, voter turnout is lower. Statistically, older white voters (the GOPs main demographic) are the ones most likely to make the effort.
The GOP is a major factor in this being an issue because in every major poll taken on the subject, if voter turnout was 100% (i.e. compulsory), pretty much every state would vote Blue. Which is why thisguy said the left isn't interested in voter suppression; it has no reason to do so.
How's things in Victoria goin? You don't have battle rifles either, how's that workin out?
When I moved to Washington State I was pleasantly surprised by the voting here. It is all done by mail. You receive your ballot, fill it out, put it in a secure envelope, sign it and either mail it or use a drop box. It is nice because you do not have to take off work or worry about being out of town etc. Think about the people that cannot miss work due to financial hardship or those that have other legitimate restrictions from going to a polling place. It increases voter turnout and makes voting equally accessible due to everyone.

As someone from Georgia, we're quite embarrassed by Kemp.
Speaking of the Heritage Foundation's voter fraud database, for a social studies project I took their data on voter fraud and the NCSL data on voter ID requirements and compared them. No correlation. When I compared the number of cases of voter fraud against population, split by voter ID requirements, still no correlation arose.
When I compared the voter fraud cases against population directly, there was in fact a correlation: the more people living in a state, the more voter fraud cases in that state, *regardless of ID requirements,* with the rate of voter fraud coming out to about 4 cases per million people *over the lifetime of the database, stretching back to 1971, and regardless of the voter ID laws.*
Conclusion: Voter ID requirements do not stop voter fraud, not that there really is a fraud problem to being with.

When I lived in Georgia, mail-in (and early voting) ballots were actually labeled as absentee ballots. Of course, I've been gone from there for 8 years so things may have changed.

Technically they are here as well. But that requirement is "you can't be fired for taking time to vote", not "your time to vote must be paid", so people living paycheck to paycheck may be unable to afford any amount of time off. Also, there are likely employers who ignore that rule and threaten to fire employees if they leave to vote because here, the government and corporations are so in bed together that when companies flaunt the few rules we place on them, they don't really run any risk of being shut down.

They got a giant hall where the Seahawks play so no one had to be any closer than 20 feet from anyone pretty much the whole time. They had mask for you if you didnt have one, hand sanitizer, they were cleaning the machines between use. They had snacks and drinks for people since it was a hit day. They also had voter guides where the candidates had submitted statements about themselves and there stances on things so if you had not decided you could sit and read about a candidate. They had enough machines that the line was never longer than two people for more than a few minutes.

I think he may be concerned that people in rural areas won't be able to get their votes mailed in as quickly as those in urban areas because the shipping takes longer, and the Republicans rely upon rural voters.
Well, maybe he shouldn’t be dismantling the post office. They’re obligated to provide service to rural areas. Parcel services aren’t.
@@ryanhall7607 There's varying degrees of "provide service" though. For instance, my particular rural area (which of course I'm not naming for privacy reasons) does not deliver mail.

Great video addressing the possibility of voter fraud. However, would you be able to possibly make a video down the line addressing how plausible election fraud is if it was committed by the people counting the votes, rather than the people casting them?
It would be extremely difficult for all the towns in all the counties in all the states of the United States to be able to coordinate on that scale. But virtually anything is possible so I imagine that if the people counting the votes get caught lying then that will be treated as voter fraud or probably even voter fraud while abusing the office of power that they had (on account of the faith given to them by the American people to perform their duty with integrity) which would come with harsher legal ramifications for those individuals then the plain ol voter fraud he is talking about in the video.
I also imagine the people that are tasked with counting votes are probably sitting in quite an uncomfortable room with very many cameras and people watching them that are counting and double counting and triple counting to be absolutely certain of results. Kind of like that scene in that old movie New Jack City where Wesley Snipes has the ladies bagging up crack but they're all butt naked cuz he wants to make sure they ain't stealing from him.

Just as an outsider not in america, he speaks about some states making sure duplicates are not possible but what about the other states?
We cannot ignore the situation in Paterson, NJ. A NJ judge has invalidated the city council election in which 24% of ballots (all mailed in) were rejected due to what amounted to procedural errors on ballots. Yes, calling this "fraud" is misleading, but if you're worried about voter suppression, mail-in voting doesn't seem to be the best option.
Didn't 4 people also get charged with real mail-in voting fraud? In addition, 24% was significantly higher than every other part of the state, which had a 13% rate or less of procedural errors. What's happened there seems like the opposite of voter suppression, as the election was rightly tainted by real voter fraud, and them deciding to redo the election seems like the correct choice to make sure democracy is preserved.

Actually, if anything it would help determine if any party sent in a mail ballot on the behalf of people that would normally vote at a polling station.
carlodagunz well, not in my area at least. We don’t check the ballots we receive for political parties.
Edit: also, in a general election, party doesn’t matter. Each party is given the same options. Plus, that doesn’t prove that the voter themselves didn’t vote twice, and commit a felony.
It isn't what you think it is. They cannot vote on the day of if their early vote had been registered. If something happened to their early vote, they will be eligible to vote on-site on the day of. This doesn't allow for double voting.
What if democrats take his joke literally and vote twice...?
24:43 -> “Election day is November 2nd...”
This, strictly speaking, not factual. Obviously a mistake, but please correct. At least you didn't say November 4th.
I'm voting even if it costs me my life. I do this for you because you are my fellow countrymen and deserve my services to our country.
God Bless America, Long Live the Republic.
I dont understand. People are okay with almost Drive-thru anything except voting? I want to vote but be required to vote. Why is it that I need to present an ID to buy a gun or alcohol but not to vote?
Because, that would prevent fraud, and we want as much of that as possible, especially with foreign powers attempting to influence the election. If we can make it easier for them to do so, then we should do so, after all, it's only corruption of elections, not like.. you know, something important, like messing with Cardi B's new single.
Because THEY don't like everyone voting.
The ones THEY want voting are the ones who were first given voting power back in the 1700s... land owning white men.
@@tskmaster3837 Ah. I forgot, only white people have driver's licenses and can walk or drive to a polling place. I had forgotten about that, what with all the traffic in the cities these days.
@@tskmaster3837 You know, your generalization of the African American community could be considered racist.
Would love to get an actual lawyer's perspective on the Kyle Rittenhouse case. Lot of "lawyers" on social media talking about it right now.
there's a criminal defense lawyer the broke it down based on the sound and video on youtube already
@@firedemon43 Link?
He's clearly innocent and acted in self-defense.
@@firedemon43 Yeah, I watched his video. I loved his audio analysis, but he missed an alternate camera angle that showed that two additional shots were fired by someone in the background, not Rittenhouse.
@@matts1166 or he chose to ignore it.... its out there.
Do they keep track of how many ballots came back? How do they know if ballots were thrown out or not?
As an Ex Postal Service Employee, I know for a FACT that Postmaster DeJoy's actions are no different than what the Post office has been doing over last several several years. It's one of the reasons I decided to retire over a year ago.
Barry, I also worked for the Post Office and I've talked to postal workers in they are not claiming this. So, you are saying for a fact that there have been other postmasters who have destroyed sorting machines and the blue boxes oh, and all the rest that he's done? If I had ever suspected Foul Play of my postmaster, I would have submitted an anonymous tip 2 State reps including senators and would have encouraged my friends at the post office to do the same and we probably would have also contacted media sources encouraging an investigation. I imagine you probably were worried to do something like that in case you would lose your job, so was that the case?
@@katrand5357 Postmaster Dejoy is the Postmaster General. Only he and the Board of Governors can make decisions about postal operations, not local postmasters. You need to go back and see what former Postmaster Generals Brennan and Donahoe have done in regard to consolidating postal sorting facilities, which means less sorting capability. That's what I was refering to, not conspiracy theories or sabotage. In these hyperpartisan days one needs to think clearly or the rage monster will overtake you.
How about a video about if a president refuses to acknowledge the results of an election. I've been wondering about that for some reason.
Where do I get ties like yours they're always on point
IDK... just ask Ilhan Omar....
In the UK when I was a kid, mail in ballots were as rare as hen's teeth, in the late 90's early 2000's people stopped voting, the turn out was pitiful, so they allowed mail in votes, you have to request one. But as I can see the polling station from my balcony, I do go and vote, however I didn't vote until my 30's as I thought my vote didn't matter, but no vote, no voice. You can't complain about things not going your way if you don't participate.
I didnt even know voting in person was a thing. I always asumed all voting was done by mail as I live in washington. lol
Are you sure your vote counted ? Arrived ? There is just one reason mass mail-in voting will be compromised.
I get angry because of all the problems with voter fraud, they never get the issue I've experienced. I'm an American citizen who has lived most of her adult life outside of the U.S. I am not military. I registered to vote internationally. I would go to the website, print up the ballot, fill it in, sign it (all usually a week or two in advance), and it would take six months at least to get there. Even using airmail, the international mail system is much slower than American mail system. This year, I VOTED EARLY IN PERSON! I'm proud of that!
14:45 I love this country so much.
dang no free stripping? i need to repaint the kitchen xD
Legal Ballot security measures, like: signatures that can invalidate false ballots, like.... wait (you’re saying some states are removing that invalidation method?)
In Indiana, a convicted can regain their right to vote after completing their court obligations (probation, house arrest, all fees paid, court ordered rehabilitation, jail, etc) and don't need to go through the expungement process first.
I'd like to just toss in a comment that while I personally derive great enjoyment from the occasional jab at Beloved Leader, I do use these videos as sources of expert information for my republican family who generally refuse to listen to the "biased liberal media" but give more credence to direct information from legal and medical experts, and these jokes can give the impression of bias that can hurt their credibility with defensive conservative viewers. I believe that these videos can be powerful tools for overcoming the rampant misinformation machine that is crippling voters' ability to make informed decisions, but in order for them to fill that valuable purpose, they can't antagonize, even unintentionally, a portion of the viewers that they could serve in that capacity. Of course you have the right and even responsibility to make the content that you feel is the most valuable to your audience, but I urge you to consider this application in determining how to apply humor. As always, keep up the great work.
Trump "I encourage my supporters to hang out at the polls and make sure no schanagins are going on" ... in some States , that's called voter intimidation and illegal. You can't just appoint yourself as Poll Watcher , there's a process. -- Wanna be Poll Watchers, either go through the process or 'stand down'
What about Judicial Watch who found that a large number of illegal names on the voting lists in some cities of California??
Please review Silicon Valley's season 12 ep.9 "Binding Arbitration".
Little did anyone know that we would almost lose democracy that day. ( 25:14 )
19:01 _"...a fairly conservative think tank..."_ LOL! Understatement of the year!
*Trump 2016:* eLeCtIoN fRaUd iSnT rEaL.
*Trump 2020:* b-BuT wHaT aBoUt eLeCtIoN fRaUd?!
My my, how his tune has changed. Someone should toss his own rhetoric back at him, that would be delicious.
Trump claimed fraudulent voting from illegal citizens in the 2016 election because his ego was hurt that he lost the popular vote to Clinton. Of course, that was projection because he knew Russia was pushing online propaganda to tip the tables in his favor.
Objection: Tail wagging the Dog! Trump knows that if mail in voting goes into effect he will loose. He is doing what he always does, lie and hope no-one realizes it. I want more people to vote. In fact I want everyone to vote.
In Australia the Australian Electoral Office (AEC) conducts all federal, state and municipal elections. It is a federal statutory authority and ensures uniform rules nationwide. It also runs elections for large corporations for a fee. Contrary to popular belief, voting is not compulsory but registering on the electoral roll is as well as either getting your attendance to a polling station noted or (if eligible) casting a postal vote. Too make things easier, one can pre-poll at polling stations that are provided for this purpose in each electorate.
Typically primary schools make up the vast majority of polling stations (elections are always held on Saturdays). Schools run sausage sizzles and make some bucks and rarely would one wait more than 30 mins. In short nearly everyone votes and winners of most electorates are called on election night, though senate election results can take a couple of weeks. Our system works and has been the model for many other countries. This is why we can’t but look on to the mess that is an American election with some bewilderment.
just vote in the polls period end of story
In certain places that is going to be hard due to very few polling places. No volunteers to station them or machines to vote on. This is not a black and white situation and you need to inform yourself and learn about just how difficult this election is going to be
In my country vote by mail is not allowed (unless you live abroad) because of possible manipulation. Look, it's true I can always be pressured into voting a specific candidate by someone, even in the voting ballot. But if I vote by mail, that someone can LITERALLY write the candidate's name for me, and in huge quantity if offering money to people in need. "hey fella, bring your voting letter here at 7 pm, 50$ to everyone who lets me write for you". Too easy to manipulate...
