@georgetakei A downside to mail voting: a controlling or abusive husband can insist on supervising his wife's vote, or even commit a felony by filling out her ballot himself.

There's a lot to be said for the comfort and convenience of voting by mail, as one graphic meme had it, "at your kitchen table, with a cat in your lap, and a big book of information about the candidates and ballot questions provided by the state."

There's also a lot to be said for the privacy of the voting booth.
