Nah, it's pure vote tampering, well-worth hating the Republican administration for. People will forget, people have busy lives, much more than people will decide to send in the ballot early and they know that. As a bonus it would no longer give people a deadline to convene around -- will the ballot be delivered in two days? Three? What about a mail delay? Idk how you could see this as anything but despicable thuggery.

Okay, you know you need your ballot mailed to you right? So what happens when they mail it late??

Oh I'll add it to the list. And its certainly a rule that will be used to throw out legal ballots.
