I believe voting should be as easy and convenient as possible
And that is why I advocate for vote by mail. Younger voters just couldn't be bothered to come out and vote. I think if it had been more convenient for them they would have cast a ballot..What is more convenient than voting from your own home/dorm. Have a couple of weeks to get it together and mark a couple of pieces of paper and let the mailman take it away..If we don't do something those that are most motivated will get out to vote while the lazy and or unconcerned will stay home and party...Republicans know this and that is why for many years now they mail out absentee ballots to their people way before the election. I believe vote by mail would increase the Democratic vote by 20% at the very least...
