The 2020 election is right around the corner, but no one can agree on how people should vote. The controversy first flared up in late July, when President Trump wondered on Twitter whether to “Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???” This understandably earned the ire of many citizens and legislators from both parties.

In response to these remarks, some policymakers have been pushing hard for providing tens of billions of dollars in funding for the U.S. Postal Service to facilitate mail-in voting.
