Mail-in voting myths under the microscope: a CNN fact-check
CNN debunks Trump’s recent claims about mail-in voting: several countries use mail ballots, not just the U.S.; the Jimmy Carter commission did not call for an outright ban on mail-in voting; mail-in voting is not inherently corrupt and fraud is exceedingly rare; states like Utah and California demonstrate robust safeguards, including signature verification and voter eligibility checks; Trump’s assertion that California sends out about 38 million ballots is false ( California has roughly 22–23 million active voters); there is no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, despite increased mail voting; overall, the article argues for strengthening safeguards rather than banning mail-in voting.
