MARYLAND PREPARES FOR SPECIAL CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION WITH VOTE-BY-MAIL

Maryland's first all-mail election is underway, with most voters from the state's 7th Congressional District casting ballots remotely to elect an interim representative following Congressman Elijah Cummings' death last October.

Registered voters across the district—which encompasses roughly half of Baltimore City, in addition to areas of Baltimore and Howard counties—received paper ballots by mail or fax earlier this month from the state's Board of Elections, which also made electronic ballots available to download directly from its website. The board is accepting ballots issued by mail on or before April 28, as well as those deposited at designated drop-off locations prior to 8:00 p.m. EDT on Tuesday.

Several outlets, including the Associated Press, have reported that ballots cast in-person during Maryland's 7th Congressional District election will be quarantined for 24 hours before they are reviewed by election officials in effort to avoid potential exposure to infection.

Why not put the voting booths at Walmart?

Shut down the country for several 4-6 hour blocks at a time from Friday through Monday and have people vote over the extended voting period. Mail in voting wrong. If a Democrat wins it will be considered a wonderful way to vote. If a Republican wins it will be considered a fraud election.
