TIL Desk/World/Washington/ United States President Donald Trump on Thursday for the first time openly floated the idea of postponing the presidential elections in November, a suggestion immediately criticised by leaders of the opposition Democratic Party.
‘With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history,’ Trump tweeted on Thursday, just 96 days before the election. ‘It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???’ Trump said in his tweet, which was immediately condemned by the opposition Democratic party leaders.
Trump, who is trailing badly in the race for the White House, argued that mail in voting brings in rigging in elections. He has been a big opponent to it. During COVID-19 pandemic era, a large number of Americans are expected to opt for mail in voting to avoid standing in line and going to a polling booth to exercise their right to franchise.
