      No, you vote by mail because you live somewhere that allows it.

      If you live somewhere red, you probably need to show up in person on election day, and wait around for hours hoping that you don’t get disenfranchised.

        EDIT 2: This map is NOT ENTIRELY ACCURATE. Spot checking NY and PA - these states have restrictions on Absentee ballots BUT also offer less restrictive Early Mail In voting which IS NOT represented. Check your latest state laws here: https://www.nass.org/can-i-vote/absentee-early-voting

        In seven sixteen states, voters still need a reason to vote absentee. That means many voters in these states will need to vote in person at a polling place.

        Edit- replaced with newer map from '22, excuse required states doubled since '20.
