## Transcript

There will be no Mail-In ballots. Mail-In ballots are inherently corrupt. The first Mail-In ballots for the midterms are about to go out, but there's still a legal fight over how some of them will be counted. Here's what voters need to know about President Donald Trump's ongoing fight over Mail-In ballots. In 60s, Donald Trump has long railed against Mail-In voting, blaming it for his loss in 2020. He had long claimed, without evidence, that mail in ballots cast at the height of the Covid 19 pandemic were either fabricated or cast by folks who shouldn't have been allowed to vote in the first place.

His advisers backed him off those rants, and in 2024, about a quarter of Republicans ended up voting by mail. Now, Trump is back fixated on curbing the ability to get a ballot through the mail. His weapon of choice. Post offices. In fact, he's trying to nationalize voting by empowering postal workers to block ballots from people not on a list of U.S. citizens. And a whistleblower is now warning Congress that the Postal Service is rushing through a system that could lead to many legitimate ballots being rejected. The fight is ping pong around the courts, leaving voters and campaigns alike wondering what exactly the rules will be in November.

But with Election Day fast approaching, the unsettled questions around voting by mail need clear answers. If we're going to continue to have confidence in the democratic system.
