I think the democrats favor it because they can muster more votes because their base is less likely to make the effort to vote, and some shenanigans may ensue. Especially since mail in ballots can be spammed out to the populace, making potential fraud more possible.
But yes, both sides favor rules that favor their party.
why do you think that "some shenanigans may ensue" only from the Democratic side? In the past several election cycles, there has been plenty of shenanigans from the Republican side.
Republican or Democrat, we all should be in favor of voting laws that ensure that as many Americans as possible have the opportunity to vote. If Republicans worry that allowing access to the ballot box means they will lose, maybe they need to examine their candidates and policies instead of limiting the voters
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
