Can we safely vote in person?

New Research Suggests In-Person Voting May Be Less Risky Than Previously Thought

Not sure why it was even considered "risky" in the first place. Just wear your mask and take hand sanitizer with you. Heck, they might wipe the touch screen down after each voter steps out of the booth. Just keep people spaced apart and make them have masks. They only the mask even needs to be pulled down for a second if when they check your ID. If it's done right you could process thousands of people at a polling place without a single transfer of the virus.

Completely agree. Just make every person sanitize their hands before and after they enter the booth and do a wipedown after each voter. No mask. Not voting.

In the Kansas primaries I voted in person. They gave us pens with styluses and a long cotton swab stick never touched the machines physically.

Check the above two posts. Just make a mask as mandatory as a photo ID--no mask, no vote. Making you wear a mask in a government-controlled facility is no more an invasion of your liberties than is requiring a photo ID, although the Democrats say that's racist.

C’mon, Mili. Name-calling of a political party doesn’t belong in this thread.

I saw a picture of a dumbass on an airplane with no mask bragging on Facebook that he wasn't a pussy. I'm not ever going to assume a simple solution exists to something like voting in person as long as Muracins are involved.

Delta banned him for life, which I have zero doubt he'll find a way to monetize through speaking engagements. I don't care what the guy's military record was. In civilian life, he's been on the grift non-stop.

"On the grift"? Fuckers purposely on welfare their whole lives are grifters. Some who volunteers for service, makes the most elite military team on the planet, kills the most wanted man on the planet, and then makes a buck or two talking about it isn't a grifter.
