Concerns About Mail-In Voting Rise as Elections Draw Near

Summary from the AllSides News Team

As the November general elections draw near and COVID-19 coronavirus cases continue to rise around the nation, the debate around in-person voting and mail-in voting heats up. In-person voting can carry more health risks, while mail-in voting can raise election security concerns. At least 41 states will reportedly allow people to vote by mail this year. Right- and center-rated outlets tend to cover these voter fraud stories more diligently, including this week's voter fraud scandal in Philadelphia. Left-rated outlets, on the other hand, tended to emphasize the higher risk of catching the virus while voting in person, also pointing out that some politicians who oppose mail-in voting have voted by mail in the past.
