My Uncle and Aunt in Ohio support Trump but are not voting.

They both have autoimmune disorders so don't want to risk voting in person but believe if they vote by mail, their vote will be changed or stolen. Lol Trump did this to himself.

Trump then demands all mail-in/ absentee ballots MUST be counted.

a pre-existing condition, and they support the man who wants to get rid of their health care entirely? If they're over 65, do they realize he wants to totally defund Social Security and Medicare?

Please replace their television with one that will not receive Fox News.

I mean, really. It's good they are not voting, but clearly they would happily vote themselves into early graves.

I've been thinking that the virus is surging in largely red areas and will have been pretty bad for awhile in those places by election day. Democrats will have voted early by mail or drop-off, but Rs didn't trust mail and thought the virus was a hoax until too late to get an absentee ballot, but having realized by then that the virus is real, they're afraid to go in person on election day. Don't know how likely any of that is.

that Antifa had figured out a way to steal Republican nailed in ballots.

Suppress their vote like their party does to all who don’t agree with them.
