Trump Suggests ‘Delaying Election’ Due to Postal Vote – Will COVID Decide 2020 Race?
This week, with the election roughly 100 days away, President Trump put forward the idea of delaying the November 3rd US presidential election, casting doubt over the integrity of the vote. As expected, his social media move triggered the mainstream press, as well as Republican leaders in Congress, who immediately opposed the notion that the election may need to be held back due to the prospect of having polls closed on the day due to COVID fears, thus leaving most Americans no other option but to mail-in their votes.
