In this year of pandemic, it seems assured that a record number of citizens will choose to vote by mail. But approval of this method of voting appears increasingly divided along partisan lines, thanks in part to President Trump's declamations. Evidence from the presidential primaries held earlier this year indicates that allegiance to the president, as well as relative lack of concern about the COVID-19 virus, made voters less likely to choose to vote by mail.
在今年这个疫情大流行之年,似乎可以确定的是,会有创纪录数量的公民选择通过邮寄方式投票。但这种投票方式的认可度似乎越来越因党派立场而出现分歧,这在一定程度上要归因于特朗普总统的公开指责。今年早些时候举行的总统初选的证据表明,对总统的忠诚以及对新冠病毒相对缺乏担忧,使得选民不太可能选择通过邮寄方式投票。
