Voting by mail is easy and convenient

While it’s understandable why Republicans tend to be opposed to anything that makes voting easier, I’ve always been puzzled by liberals and Democrats who are opposed to vote-by-mail on the basis that there’s some particular civic virtue attached to voting in-person. I hear from them less and less, but they always tended to be older and privileged enough to take time off from work to vote

USA voting on a weeday istead of saturday and sunday or sunday and monday, seems to me a strange quirk anyway.

I think that voting in person it’s more visible than voting by mail, and that’s it: especially in a small countryside town everyone could see people going to vote, while with vote by mail it’s way less noticeable.
