Mail-in voting has been a contentious issue during this 2020 presidential election year. Yet because of the pandemic, to date more Americans than ever before are choosing to vote by mail. While voting by mail has been in place since the civil war, there is a great deal of controversy being circulated as to its validity. In fact, mail-in ballots and supposed voter fraud have become a political outcry and the cause for serious concern over our overall election system.
