letting our service people overseas take part in making their voice heard (they are, after all, putting their lives on the line for the US). There are over 250,000 in the field right now.

Letting people who are temporarily working or studying abroad participate. They are still citizens and shouldn't have to spend huge sums of money to come back for one day! The number working abroad 5-9 million, studying 280,000

Shut-ins, people with disabilities, etc, all deserve to be part of the process. At least 20% of over 40 million disabled people report difficulty in voting. 83% of polling places have some barrier to voting. There is also the issue of limited access to transportation and a lack of accessible voting machines.

Please tell me how this is somehow a "democrat" ploy. It's been used successfully since the Civil War. Do you get checks by mail? Important documents? your renewed driver's licence? If you trust the mail for those, you can trust it for voting.

Fraud with mail-in voting is rare (0.0025%). Layers of security include requiring voters to be registered, mailing ballots to official addresses, signature verification, and employing tracking mechanisms like barcodes.
