Do PA voters have to REQUEST a mail-in ballot—or will the State automatically mail every voter with a ballot, whether requested or not? The latter is what the President is tweeting about…the statute you sent does not clarify that…
Thanks!

But New York does not have “Universal Mail-in Voting.” Nor does PA. They both have absentee voting, nothing more. In fact, only a handful of states have “Universal Mail-in Voting.” Instead, about 28 states now have no-excuse absentee voting — including many that would be considered “red states,” such as KS/ID/WY/SD/ND/NC/NV/NE/MT/GA/AK (a few of these states currently have divided government).
