South Korea held an election primarily at the polls. Why can’t the US?
1. SK uses hand marked paper ballots (w/ a rubber stamp), whereas many US jurisdictions use touchscreens, which are disease vectors & take voters 3X as long to use as #HandMarkedPaperBallots & scanners.

2. South Korea conducted massive early testing and thus has done a much better job than the US of controlling the coronavirus. https://twitter.com/richardburgon/status/1249353710347653121?s=21 2/ https://twitter.com/richardburgon/status/1249353710347653121

5/ Coronavirus testing in the US is slowing down, rather than ramping up. https://twitter.com/senblumenthal/status/1250532291031502848?s=21 https://twitter.com/senblumenthal/status/1250532291031502848

3. Whereas all voters in line in South Korea are wearing masks, many US voters won’t. 7/ https://twitter.com/phancockscnn/status/1250265995102445571?s=21 https://twitter.com/phancockscnn/status/1250265995102445571
4. Case in point. MAGAs think it is their God given right to endanger others by NOT wearing face masks. With this mentality, polling place voting in the US would be suicide (or homicide depending on your vantage point). 8/
5. As far as I know, SK does not suffer from the type of electoral incompetence & voter suppression that forces voters to stand in line for 3+ hours. We are simply too inept &/or corrupt to pull off polling place voting during a pandemic w/o it killing tons of people. 9/

8. Look at these bozos demanding “freedom” to spread coronavirus in Michigan. No masks here. Thanks to certain segments of the US population, America cannot implement polling place voting responsibly. https://twitter.com/mikenziefrost/status/1250442559597318151?s=21 https://twitter.com/mikenziefrost/status/1250442559597318151
9/ That, plus our germy touchscreen voting machines and 3+ hour long lines to vote. We must expand vote by mail to the extent possible with integrity protections for November.
