Absentee voting for the presidential election will begin this week, two months before Election Day, as early in-person voting starts nationwide later this month amid lawsuits over election administration and election integrity concerns.
However, election integrity concerns from the last presidential election remain as various courts determine how mail-in ballots and voter rolls are to be handled with only two months before the next president will be elected.
The presidential election begins this week as absentee ballots are mailed to voters in one state, with others to follow in the coming weeks.
Mail-in voting and early voting have historically been a weakness for the GOP, with Republican voters predominantly opting to vote in person on Election Day.
In the meantime, just nine weeks out from Election Day, lawsuits are ongoing regarding the general election.
Whether you vote absentee, by mail, early in-person or on election day, we are going to protect the vote," Trump said in a press release.
Taking a page from the Democratic Party's playbook, in June, former President Donald Trump announced the start of the Republican National Committee's "Swamp the Vote" campaign to encourage early voting, as well as the use of mail-in and absentee ballots.
