Oregon has been exclusively vote-by-mail for 22 years. Washington State has permitted any voter who wanted to vote by mail since 1993.
Republican candidates have won elections in each state in the ensuing years and I don’t believe that there have been “voter fraud” concerns raised of any significance, if at all. This president raises “questions” or “concerns,” without any evidence offered. This has been his standard go-to move for years. It is what rational voters and citizens nationally have come to anticipate from a serial liar with impunity.
So where are the voices of the office holders who have been elected by this system? Where is the push-back against this misinformation? Need I have to say that such activity is the integrity of our elections? Trump’s “patriots” have silenced these office holders. A certain portion of our elected officials are afraid.
Don’t they swear an oath? Aren’t they defenders of our democracy? If they are silent, why should they deserve a single vote? They are enabling a pandemic of self-interest, ignorance and fear, and possibly betraying their oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic.
One office holder is candidate No. 1 for treason, but that moment was discarded.
