I believe that would be called absentee voting and something Trump is in favor of. However the exception should not be the excuse for everyone which is exactly how mail in ballots started to begin with.

I think some people are underestimating just how many people that would be. My home state has such a high rate of disabilities, and that’s not going into the issues of no public transportation, the distance some people will have to go to vote, etc. there are so many that the exceptions would be greater than the non-exceptions.

Wait what, are you saying there's a state where there is more disabled people living off the government than people that aren't 🤔 man what the hell kinda disease has the country come down with.

I’m not talking just about the disabled persons, but also the people who are caretakers. When the state is so poor they aren’t paying someone to do that, it’s a family member(s) doing it. And, again, I’m talking about my home state which is literally at the “top” of every negative statistic you can imagine, so yes, the rates are high and the amount of other people “helping out” is high.

Edit: I looked it up, almost 20% of the state has a disability, and those are the ones actually reporting and doing anything about it. Many of them, my own mother included, should be on disability but won’t do it for pride reasons.
