Okay, but in those 50 years has there ever been a pandemic that necessitated the use of universal mail in voting? And during that pandemic, did the incumbent President explicitly use his authority over the post office to prevent mail in voting? The USPS sure seems to think these measures will lead to disenfranchised voters:

I'm sure the objections to mail-in voting would disappear if positive Id were a reality.

Maybe fingerprints, a PIN, anything. As it sits, it does look susceptible to fraud. Pandemic or not, we shouldn't make major changes without ensuring integrity, IMHO.
