President Trump says he wants to stop funding for electronic message arrest vote

President Donald Trump has stepped up its attacks on mail voting on Thursday, when he appeared to say clearly what he has instilled in months: that his opposition to the US Postal Service and other media of choice of financing, part of a conscious effort is to make it harder for Americans to mail in November to vote. “You need the money to get the job at the post office, so that all these millions of ballots taken,” the president said Thursday in an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business Network. “But if they do not get these two things, it means you can not universal mail-in voting, because they have overlooked.” He added: “Well, if we do a deal, it means that they do not the money to get. That means they can not universal mail-in voting, they just can not get” In the same conversation Trump repeated the false claim it did earlier that an increase election result will be placed “one of the biggest frauds in history.” States such as Oregon and Washington, the mandatory electronic voting have reported extremely low fraud. Trump said Thursday were not made in isolation. The day before Trump, told reporters that he had refused to sign on an emergency funding package that contained the $25 billion for the postal service and $3.5 billion for election security. On the call with Fox on Thursday joined Trump to block its decision this means for his opposition to the mail vote. “The election money, basically,” he said after the financing to maintain would “prove to be fraudulent for something.” electoral and democratic Experts fear that the president’s comments will undermine the confidence of the voters in the November election results. Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president, told reporters on Thursday afternoon that Trump opposition the place of funding was “pure Trump,” he added: “He does not want the elections” In the last round of the crown facilitate negotiations have repeated Democrats in Congress requested further means for the postal service, which is on the brink of bankruptcy to a drop in part during COVID-19-pandemic mailings. Democrats have proposed a universal electronic measuring vote as Trump suggested. All states, most of which are Republican-LED, offer some type of electronic voting in November. election officials of both parties have actively encouraged voters to vote by post as a way to avoid contracting or spreading COVID-19 during the current pandemic. A record number of Americans should vote by mail this year. election experts said Thursday that President points out to inject the necessary political not in an already difficult situation. “The funding and the support post is not about the implementation of universal suffrage by mail. It is voters rights and state laws in the states supported living to get a ballot and” return through the mail in a global pandemic, has said Tammy Patrick, senior adviser to the Fund for democracy, who have many tips choice of voting officials to match. “It is not, and is not, a trailer or political maneuver to prevent or support of voting someone in a certain way. That’s where I have a real challenge to say to those mentioned as Democrats for more supervision of the new Postmaster Louis DeJoy the sources of funding for a “political reason. The president of the comments from the Trump May appointed, DeJoy is a major donor Republican and holds a multi-million dollar investment in its former company XPO Logistics, an entrepreneur USPS, is likely to create a huge conflict of interest, according CNN analysis of financial data and ethicists. DeJoy, who served as General Postmaster for less than two months, has already launched a complete reorganization of the USPS, including a hiring freeze and other cost-cutting moves that postal workers say hinder their email capacity to collect and deliver in time. State election officials say delays in mail collection and delivery could hamper the Agency’s ability to provide ballots before the November elections. While millions of Americans by mail for the first time this year they are planning a vote, says Patrick, that the increase in the vote-mail is not their main concern. The post processed about 180 million pieces of mail a day, so the increase in the rating is only “a blip on the radar,” he says. “We have over the years many policies and protocols in collaboration with the Postal Service to ensure that the responsibility and integrity in the voting for the printing process,” says Patrick. “My concern with this new Postmaster General as to whether or not the same rules will be met, and recognized and satisfied.” House and Senate Democrats that its decisions have all letters sent to DeJoy this week that concerns already caused delays mail. “It ‘s always important that the postal service is able to deliver mail in a timely and effective manner. As a once-in-a-century health and economic crisis COVID-19, the postal smooth running service is a matter of life and death, and is crucial for the protection of life, livelihood and life of our American democracy, “House lawmakers wrote. “The house is seriously concerned to implement policies that accelerate the crisis on the postal service, including post offices Director does not treat all election as First Class Mail. Now, if implemented, such as the election draws near, this policy will result in further delays to dial mail, will disenfranchise voters and put considerable financial pressure on the electoral systems “in the letter DeJoy Senate Democrats asked,” to prioritize the delivery of mail throughout the election “and criticized his leadership. “Instead of measures to increase the capacity to provide for the American people to take your agency to implement policy changes, amendments in question would make things worse, and the post office has reported that increase the cost to the states in a time when millions of Americans depend on the mail vote on their right to vote for the year, “he wrote. Although the president has politicized electronic vote, suggesting that only Democrats to embrace the notes that Patrick, when card sent late or not priorities, Republican turnout would likely suffer. Elderly and rural voters tend vote Republican, are historically more likely to vote by mail. election officials have already heard from Republican voters to ask if it was safe during the primaries by e-mail right if Trump criticized the process, says Patrick, and that could increase if the attacks continue
