To Vote By Mail or Not To Vote By Mail. That is The Question.

So after Trump told Republicans not to vote by mail, he lost Georgia. Roughly 24,000 Republicans who voted by mail in the state’s June primary didn’t cast ballots in the general election, probably because Trump told them not to vote by mail and undermined their trust in the entire voting system.

Biden got 300,000 more votes in mail-in ballots than Trump, and that’s been intensely verified three times. Those votes offset Trump’s election day victory.

So now, Republicans in Georgia are encouraging their people to vote by mail after Trump built a cottage industry off destroying any faith at all in voting by mail or trusting people who ask you to vote by mail. Yep, as we country folks say, he was hoisted by his own petard.  And Honey, it’s been a blessing to see.

It’s likely that early January could be icy in Georgia.  It’s also likely that Trump voters are going to listen to Trump, not Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger or Georgia Governor Brian Kemp – two men Trump has vilified repeatedly.  So we could see another petard hoisted.

This might be fun.

Thanks to Henry for the heads up.
