Three states exclusively use mail in ballots (starting with Oregon in 2000 I believe so at least 20 years), and if there is epidemic of criminal kneecapping going on, I feel like we'd have heard about it by now.

BTW, I believe Oregon started VBM in 1996.

Looks like they were voting on senators in 96, passed a measure in 98, and had their first all mail vote in 2000.

Apparently it also saves a bunch of money.
