States made voting by mail easier amid COVID-19 in 2020. Trump is wrong to call that cheating.
- Many states changed procedures in 2020 to make it easier to vote by mail during the COVID-19 pandemic. Some states loosened restrictions that required voters to provide excuses for using mail ballots. Other states sent mail ballots or mail ballot applications to all registered voters.
- States applied these changes through authorized public processes that are open to public scrutiny, such as changing law or issuing executive orders or guidance. The changes applied to all voters, regardless of party affiliation.
