Also: one of the most common reasons absentee ballots are rejected is because they don’t have a signature or the signature doesn’t match. Part of the security check. — PolitiTweet.org

Stephen Miller falsely claims people who mail in their ballots don’t have their identity confirmed and that nobody checks. We talked to election officials from BOTH parties on the rigorous security checks in place: https://t.co/Dg24SwL71I — PolitiTweet.org

Also, it's worth noting there is no "universal" vote by mail system. Our elections are decentralized. 5 states conduct their elections by mail. 29 states let you vote absentee/by mail without an excuse. VBM is an option. People are still allowed to vote in person, and will. — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

Trump saying only count Election Day votes is 1) not how elections work and 2) why his declining to say whether he would accept the election results is so important. More on that here: https://t.co/7nzHg9Pxo6 — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

The biggest cause for the delay in results? Many states are not allowed to even open the absentee ballots until Election Day. That could be changed with local legislation and would allow the process to go more quickly. — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

A good time to re-up my story on why we may not know the results on Election Day and a reminder that it doesn't affect the integrity of the election: https://t.co/ZyUtUzK215 — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

Obama's comments went further than Biden, who has recently signaled some openness to eliminating the filibuster, saying per NYT"“It’s going to depend on how obstreperous they become,” referring to Republicans." https://t.co/c7l0eC53lh — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

This is news, from Sanders. He did not previously support eliminating it outright, though he backed reforms and favored a budget reconciliation process to pass M4A. — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

So, this is a big deal: Obama calling for the elimination of the filibuster-- "another Jim Crow relic"--if it interferes with voting rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Caitlin Huey-Burns @CHueyBurns

NY is a mess & warning sign. Biggest issues per my reporting: lack of infrastructure scale up VBM quickly, key states can't open ballots until Election Day, learning curve for ppl VBM for 1st time: missing signature, arriving late etc. More details here: https://t.co/ZyUtUzK215 — PolitiTweet.org

Per the Congressional Research Service on presidential authority over elections: "The text of the Constitution does not appear to contain a constitutional role for the Executive Branch in such decisions." More here: https://t.co/UIZpMxEJHZ — PolitiTweet.org

Fact check: The president does not have the power to delay the election. Per CRS: "While the Executive Branch has significant delegated authority regarding some aspects of election law, this authority does not currently extend to setting or changing the times of elections" — PolitiTweet.org
