President Trump has been speaking out against mail-in voting for weeks now.
Democrats know it is easier to cheat and steal votes when a state moves to mail-in voting.
It’s the reason Nevada Democrats on Saturday passed mail-in voting and ballot harvesting in their special session just 97 days before the national election.
They know it’s easier to cheat that way.
President Trump posted this video earlier this week that shows how corrupt and flawed the mail-in voting process is in America today. [Video]
But Marco Rubio sided with Democrats today.
During a phone call with President Trump Marco told listeners he was not concerned about mail-in voting in Florida.

Thank you,

All Senator Rubio said, in answer to the President’s question, was, "No, I’m not concerned about mail in voting in Florida." That hardly qualifies as disgusting, much less betrayal. The President has a lot of respect for the man he once called “Little Marco,” and often seeks his opinion. Leave it to Gateway Pundit to sow discord where there isn’t any.

We have vote by mail in FL and we have done it. It is essentially absentee balloting and was set up to cut down lines at the polling places and at early voting centers. Granted, our county (Pinellas) has a good Supervisor of Elections who is honest (not a Democrat put in office by George Soros). It has worked for us but the difference is that you MUST request the vote by mail option, they do not just send out ballots. There is also no ballot harvesting that I know of. However, in the past we had to put one stamp on the envelope and it got postmarked, For the upcoming primary election it was prepaid postage - which concerns me after the NY example. For November, I will put a stamp on our ballots and drop them at the post office and wait in line to have it postmarked at the counter, so no one can question when it was mailed. Bottom line, it works in FL because it is not a broad mailing - ripe with fraud opportunities for Democrat cheaters. Finally, Marco Rubio is a little man who still has not got over losing to President Trump. Very disappointed in Marco and I hope someone runs against him next time. He didn't want a 2nd term so I think a strong primary challenge would scare him off.

That shouldn't surprise anybody, Little Marco has always been a Never Trumper. Lucky we have a sane Governor in Florida who WON"T allow vote by mail.

Not much substance to the article. Little Marco's always been an opportunistic rat.

So-called mail in voting I’d designed in different ways, here every registered voter is send a mail in ballot request by the State voter registrar to their address of record, the prospect voter must must fill out and sign the request and mail it back to the voter registrar, which is similar to absentee voting. Then in a second mailing the registrar mails out a ballot to the prospective voter’s address of record. The voter then fills out the ballot, signs it, and returns it by mail to the registrar where it must be received before Election Day.
That’s different then what the Democrats intend to do, that is to just mail a voter ballot to the last known address to everybody who ever registered to vote in a State without receiving any sort of ballot requests from prospective voters, and not knowing if the registered person even lives at that address or is even alive. In a situation like that common sense tells you that with that many ballots floating around there is bound to be mass fraud as ballots that show up in mail boxes all over inner city areas, with huge unstable populations including masses of illegal aliens, where the addressee no longer resides, are collected and are either given or even sold to political operatives out to harvest them, fraudulently fill them out, and then return them to the registrars to be counted in the election result.
The so called mainstream (liberal) media, including the daytime and weekend Fox News, is now full bore trying to defend what the Democrats intent to do, even conflating that it is the same as the absentee voting that the US military members take part in when they are away from their place of residence, a comparison that is completely bogus.

Everyone should be concerned about presidential elections in Florida, which has a history of disaster. As for mail in ballots, that ensures the election will not be resolved on election day, allows the Democrats to know the count, and the mob will deliver the Democrats the number of votes they need to win, new uncounted vote discoveries. No Republican has ever won a close election, or one not resolved on election day. Marco Rubio is a fool, and not fit for Congress.

Totally in agreement #4 and #7. IGateway Pundit is clickbait. There is little to this story other than the usual inflammatory headline. The only thing that is "disgusting" is the headline and the poor excuse for journalism that follows it.

Agree with #4. In Pennsylvania, mail-in ballots go out to those who request them, and their status can be followed until received and accepted in the county. Not that there can't be issues, but the focus should be on states where ballots go to every registered voter (or, as some have called for, anyone "eligible to register"), and there are built in delays for weeks after the election (so Democrats can make up shortfalls). The president and the RNC should focus on particular states rather than settle for scattershot blasts at the concept.

Let's not get carried away. Is that all there is - "No, I'm not concerned about mail-in voting in Florida"? Rubio doesn't appear to be endorsing Democrat swamp-the-mail tactics. And as earlier posters have explained, we do already have some legitimate and well-managed mail-in processes in Florida. Nothing to get excised about.

Every voting idea can be corrupted. Here is an idea. Make voting fraud really, really, illegal. As is 20 years in a Federal prison illegal and include anyone who authorizes or has knowledge of fraud, but who does nothing. Plea deals of 5 years in Federal prison, but only if it leads to higher up criminals. Find someone who perverted a state result and reward the investigator with $500,000. Include the media in the investigation. As soon as the usual suspects start crying about voter intimidation, investigate them for collusion with voting fraud. It will never happen, but pretty sure if it did, every election would be honest, instead of a soft corruption and a cancer to the health of the nation and freedom.

When Marco first showed up back in the Obama days, he looked so GOOD as a viable candidate. But alas, he turned out to be a flash in the pan. In flintlock weapon days, the powder in the pan flashed, as if the weapon would fire, but it didn't transfer to the powder in the barrel behind the bullet, so nothing came out. Now you had a useless club in your hands.
That's Marco, a useless RINO. He is not now and never has been "conservative", just a displaced Cuban.

Here in Massachusetts we received our applications for a mail in ballot several weeks ago. I received two. One for my self and one for my wife. My youngest son got four. One for himself and one for his wife. The other two belonged to the previous owners of the house that my son had bought from them four years ago. Those folks moved to Florida. You can bet that situation has happened thousands and thousands of times across this country. If my son wanted to he could vote for Trump/Pence four times. He won't because he believes in the process. Wonder if our democratic friends would do the same? I doubt it. Win by any means necessary.

Well Marco may not be worried, but the people who love this country are worried about mail in ballots and the amount of fraud that could and probably will result from it.

Sometimes I think Rubio is just stupid as hell, but other times, like now, I am convinced that he is a damned traitor, and WANTS the Dems in charge.

Rubio is just another empty suit who stands for nothing. His whole goal seems to be to get his name in the spotlight regardless of what he has to say to do it. Very similar to Romney. Neither stands for anything and can be swayed easily. Neither are leaders. If Rubio thinks some day he will be the nominee for president, he is sadly mistaken.

A country that doesn't even know how many people are actually receiving Social Security checks and if they get to the intended person, knowing only how many checks a month they print, has no business even contemplating mail-in voting. Besides, most States can't even cleanup or refuse to cleanup their own voting records, thereby allowing the dead to vote by absentee ballot.

I was a Florida resident the first time Marco ran for office and I voted for him. Agree with #s 13 and 16.

Rubio's first act when he became a senator was to partner with Chuck Shumer on an immigration bill to legalize illegals. His first act!! This guy does not deserve an ounce of respect.

Little Marco the RINO is betting and even AIDING those who would have the President be defeated.
Keep an eye on the squishy RINOs looking out for #1 instead of Americans

So Marco, I walked up to the counter and mailed a birthday gift in FL three weeks ago. Person never received it and it wasn't returned. The postal clerk said they have packages sitting in the back for days and they don't have the personnel to deliver them. Imagine how many ballots will be lost.
Little Marco only represents the Cuban community in Miami. I contacted his office once and the staffer refused to speak directly to me. Maybe she didn't speak English.
He is always wetting his finger, sticking it in the air to check the direction of the wind.

Rubio needs to be jettisoned. The sooner, the better. John McCain wannabee.
