President Trump is for the first time floating a “delay" to November's presidential election.
And he's making unsubstantiated allegations that increased mail-in voting will result in fraud.
The dates of federal elections are set by Congress and the Constitution makes no provisions for a delay to the January 20, 2021 presidential inauguration.
On Thursday morning, Trump tweets: “With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history."
There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud through mail-in voting, even in states with all-mail votes.
