the example is pennsylvania. in 1929 18, the legislature there in the fall with regular change law moved from having to have an excuse to saying anyone can request an absentee at the time they did that about 4% of pennsylvanians voted absentee. then covid comes roaring in and the change is nobody wants to be in a crowded polling place. the election workers don't to be in there with all these strangers and. voters don't want to be standing in next to other people. so idea of how can i vote with out coming in physical contact other people becomes a really important question. we never had, i believe, an election in the middle of a pandemic. we had to deal with something like that. so in pennsylvania, which had already changed its law to allow absentee voting, you went from 4% of the population voting. absentee to 40. now, the system hadn't dealt with anything like that before. there are very complicated procedures for getting absentee ballots, checking the signatures, making sure they're from the registered voter, m
