The five states that are mail-in only didn't count 0.7-0.9% of their votes. Source.
The question, though, is whether or not that number extrapolates after a revamping of the mail-in systems in all states.
If someone is turned away from voting because they refuse to wear a mask, how long until that's capitalized upon by conservatives as voter suppression?

If you can stand in line 6 ft apart at Home Depot and do self-checkout, idk how that is much different than standing in line 6 ft apart at a voting location to vote at a machine. If crowdedness is an issue they can just extend Super Tuesday to a week or so since they were already expecting huge delays in the mail-in ballots. Maybe go in alphabetical order by day or something to cut down on the crowds. Mail is so archaic and an immense waste of paper. We're not living in 1920.
