“In North Carolina, Democrats are outpacing Republicans 524,000 requests to 195,000, and in Iowa, about 319,000 Democrats have requested a mail-in ballot, nearly double the Republican total.”

The only thing we have to worry about is the GOP outpacing us in-person on Election Day -- or Democrats getting so comfortable with the mail-in voting advantage that they choose not to cast their ballots at all.
