Vote by mail is great, unless you have a controlling partner who demands filling out the ballots together www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...
This is also one of the reasons why I hate caucuses instead of primaries. Vote by mail at least comes with other benefits to increase voter participation and has in-person alternatives. Caucusing is awful for people with controlling partners.
A decent number of controlling spouses will likely just get the ballot, fill it out, and fake their partner's signature and mail it back without them even seeing it :(
I hate that this is necessary but am glad there's some small thing being done about it.
Came here to say this! I love living in a vote by mail state, but the ability of another person in the household to exert pressure or inspect ballots is wide open
This is an excellent point!
My friend moved to rural Arkansas in the early 2000s. When he and his wife went to vote, they told him that they could share a booth so that he could "help" her vote. Poll workers allow this to happen!
