12. We need to quit telling all of our voters to mail in ballots only

If you're healthy and not in a risk group, we need go out and vote in person or vote in person early. We shouldn't be asking ALL our people to mail in ballots. Trump is preparing for this and they will try to do everything to get our votes to not count. I think it's a mistake for our party to put everything on the line for mail in voting.

Yes, we do need to make it accessible to everyone, but we need a fair amount of people to vote in person too. If you can wear a mask and gloves and social distance, it should be safe to vote in person too. I voted by mail in the primary, but I will vote in person in the fall. I'm young and healthy. I don't trust anyone in govt right now.
