“Former President Jimmy Carter said “don’t ever use” mail in ballots because “they can be so easily corrupted.”

“Pennsylvania’s Department of State has “sent out 249,000 ballots to unverified voters.”
FactCheck.org says: Pennsylvania marks mail-in ballot applications as “not verified” if a voter’s identity couldn’t be immediately verified; voters have six days after an election to submit a valid ID.
“The U.S. “could easily count every vote in every state on election night until a few years ago.”
PolitiFact says: We found several examples of races in recent history that took days, weeks or months to determine a winner. The 2020 U.S. presidential election is one prominent example.

FactCheck.org says: The Part B premium drop follows a larger hike the prior year that was partly due to anticipated Alzheimer’s drug expenses, which ended up not happening. The Social Security increase is set by law and linked to inflation.
“Bodybuilder Doug Brignole died from a COVID-19 vaccine.”

“If you use the US Postal Service certified mail or registered mail, they can do anything they want with those ballots." They “can burn your mail and they won't get in any trouble.”

“Over 240,000 'unverified' ballots have already been sent out in Pennsylvania, a total mess. The Democrats are playing games again.”
PolitiFact says: The “NV” coding doesn’t mean the voter is ineligible — it means the voter’s identification needs to be verified. Voters have six days after Election Day to provide identification.
