President Donald Trump on Wednesday criticized the idea of voting by mail, saying Republicans lose out in the process, one that several states are already using amid the deadly coronavirus outbreak.
, with 38 states allowing early voting, 35 allowing absentee ballots and five relying on a mail-in system to conduct their elections. Republicans are elected to every level of government in those states, including those that primarily vote by mail.

Those voter protection proposals were left out of the $2 trillion relief package Congress enacted to stem the economic damage from the pandemic.
