THE U.S. AND U.K. ARE THE ONLY MAJOR COUNTRIES ALLOWING UNLIMITED MAIL-IN VOTING
The only countries that allowed no excuse mail-in voting are Austria, Switzerland, U.K and the United States. Most nations do allow mail-in voting for those in the military and living abroad. France outlawed mail-in voting in 1975 due to claims of voter fraud.
Voting in person is the most secure way of voting and most countries use paper ballots. It seems that the simplest way of voting is the most secure way of voting.
Some nations require that a thumb or finger must be inked after voting to insure against double voting, a good idea.
Remember, if fraud is possible, fraud will become a reality. No democracy can survive if the populace does not have faith in the election system.
We should all strive to have an election system that we can all be proud of and have confidence in an accurate and timely result.
