Oregon has had mail in voting since the late 1990's. Why Maryland has not implemented this system is a mystery since the State sends out sample ballots to all registered voters. Why not have real ballots with paid return postage. This would eliminate the closing of schools for election day, hiring poll workers and make it more convenient for working people who don't want to have to rush home, skip dinner and wait in a long line to vote. This year the exposing of voters to the Corona Virus should be the final straw in changing our State's voting system. It is long overdue.
P.S.
My thoughts the past few days have been on the wonderful Italians who are suffering with this virus. My experience in visiting Italy showed me how friendly and outgoing the Italian population is. They know how to live life to the fullest. Makes me want to visit them again after this passes to show how much they mean to Americans. Here is a video to ''flash" singing from balconies in Italy in spite of what they are experiencing.
