I like early voting. Why can't we keep that?

Because you will have all the time on voting day to vote. So early will be pointless since it's usually used as an excuse of being busy that day or at work.

I am a consultant and often have to travel with little notice. For this reason I usually vote early. In this scenario I would be forced to register for an absentee ballot to ensure my right to vote.

I'm sure all that craziness will be worked out. If you have not noticed, trump likes to make outlandish ideas and statements, then work them back until everyone stops freaking out lol.

But requesting an absentee ballot sounds like a pretty easy work around if the bill goes through as it sounds right now.
