The reason is simple: It's far easier to manipulate results. Look at >California with their ridiculous mail in process. Don't like the

now.
This is why I oppose mail in voting.
The exception is what my daughter (who lives an hour outside London in
the UK) has to do when she votes in a Canadian election. She has to
either go to the Embassy in London (it's on the NE side of Trafalgar
square so it's easily reached by tube) or mail it in in a courier
envelope at her own expense. Embassy votes are normally not processed
for a week after the election and are mostly used by Embassy staff not individuals living in the UK.
