Trump wants to ban "Mail In Ballots"..... [View all]

.....which have been really successful here in my home state of Washington. If he were to be succede in banning them, heaven forfend, I wonder if we here would not have a pre-existing "work-around". Our "paper" ballots do not have to be mailed in, but can be dropped off at drop boxes around town, primarily at city and county libraries. Not ideal and I expect Trump's plans would include a signature verification hurdle to clear (which our ballots require on an outer "safety" envelope, but it is something to consider.
