DuPage GOP to launch vote-by-mail pilot program to combat Democratic strides

After a spring election in which Democrats were victorious across the suburbs, DuPage County Republicans are launching a pilot program to encourage mail-in voting among their GOP base.

Set to begin in earnest until later this summer, party officials have high hopes the initiative will help the GOP regain strength in DuPage, a once Republican stronghold that has been shifting blue for years now.

“For numerous cycles now, strong DuPage County Republican candidates have been defeated by lesser Democratic candidates who have benefitted to an enormous degree from vote-by-mail (VBM) voting,” DuPage GOP Chairman Kevin Coyne, a former Naperville City Council member, said in a statement on social media earlier this month.

“Those days are over effective today. … Numerous states have witnessed Republicans dominate vote-by-mail returns. DuPage County will be no different.”

Repubs are using vote by mail to vote for people who dont vote. I mean they hacked the voter rolls, and know who never vote. Register them, send their vote in illegally, and how would anyone find out unless they asked that person who they voted for?
