Just for those who may not be aware of Rasmutin...

``` Nate Silver described Rasmussen as "biased and inaccurate", saying Rasmussen "badly missed the margin in many states, and also exhibited a considerable bias toward Republican candidates." ```



Just for those who may not be aware of Nate Silver:

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/?s=FiveThirtyEight rates Nate Silver's site, FiveThirtyEight, as having "LEFT-CENTER BIAS".

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/rasmussen-reports/ rates Rasmussen reports (who did the poll showing 1 in 5 persons used mail-in votes to commit election fraud) as having "RIGHT-CENTER BIAS".

That having been said, so what? Suppose the poll had revealed that HALF the actual number illegally used mail-in voting? How about 1 in 20? Would that be OK with you?

Fact is, mail-in voting has proven to be a failure and a scourge on our democracy. Get rid of it.
