It is telling that only the Democrat Party, the Democrat-controlled Media, and those influenced by them who say there is "no valid evidence" of corruption in the 2020 election. As you likely know, the election rules were changed from state to state during the COVID era. This alone calls into question the election results as they normally are produced.
When, for example, should votes be counted for long periods of time, except by the traditional military absentee ballot? When have states gone to a preference for mail in balloting or voting on street corners? When has there been such a resistance to watching the election process, suggesting it is "voter intimidation?"
As a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there have been concerns about the potential impact on the 2020 federal election cycle. Some states have delayed primary elections, and, in other jurisdictions, officials have moved polling places away from high-risk populations. As the public health crisis continues, new questions are emerging about the safety and accessibility of voting in the remaining federal primaries and the November 3 general election. These concerns are coupled with questions about how to maintain election integrity. As a result, courts across the nation have been considering challenges to key aspects of state election laws.
Much of the recent election law litigation relating to COVID-19 has challenged aspects of state laws addressing absentee voting and all-mail voting, also known as vote-by-mail. In this Sidebar, absentee voting generally refers to state laws that permit eligible voters to request and cast ballots by mail without physically going to the polls on Election Day. All-mail voting generally refers to state laws that provide for automatic mailing of ballots to all eligible voters.
This Sidebar outlines the legal landscape for state and federal election laws, examines recent challenges to state laws in response to the pandemic, and briefly discusses select legislation introduced in the 116th Congress.
