According to plan, the 2020 US presidential election will be held on November 3. However, affected by the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, many states in the United States have postponed the primary election.
According to reports, American Democrats have secured additional funds to support mailing and absentee voting. Speaker of the House of Representatives Pelosi and others believe that if the new crown virus is still spreading and the polling station staff and voters cannot vote in November, then a vote by mail may be necessary.
In this regard, Trump made it clear at the White House daily press conference that he believes that the November 3 election will not be delayed due to the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. He also emphasized that he opposed the voter voting by mail, which he believes may trigger election fraud.
Trump said: "I think people should vote with ID cards ... the reason they don't want voter ID cards is that they want to cheat."
The report said that Trump and other Republicans did not support the idea of voting by email, which they believed would damage the election prospects of Republican candidates.
