Former President Donald Trump has been toxic to the GOP in many ways in elections, and that includes his unrelenting opposition to mail-in voting.

Republicans lost a state House race in Pennsylvania in a Biden plus-10 district by 35 points, with over 95% of the vote tallied. This is thanks, in part, to the Democratic candidate dominating mail-in votes 86%-14%. In New York, Democrat Tom Suozzi won the U.S. House seat to replace expelled GOP Rep. George Santos, giving Republicans an even smaller margin. The New York Times reported that heavy snow caused turnout to shrink, which is a problem for Republicans who largely have rejected voting by mail and usually vote only in person on Election Day.
