In the midst of a deadly pandemic mail-in voting would be the safest way to vote. However, many warn that voting by mail will lead to wide-spread fraud and lost votes. Is this true, or are they baseless claims? What is true, and what are pure conspiracy theories and lies?

Some topics covered: • How are requests for mail-in ballots confirmed to be from the actual voter? • How much fraud has actually occurred in voting by mail? • How can voter suppression be mitigated when voting by mail? • What are the security controls for mail in ballots received at elections headquarters? • Is “ballot stuffing” and counting counterfeit ballots actually happening? • In what ways are mail-in voting more secure than in-person voting, and vice versa?
