To be eligible to vote early by mail in Texas, you must:
- be 65 years or older;
- be sick or disabled;
- be out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting by personal appearance; or
- be confined in jail, but otherwise eligible.
What I see in this is, restrictions. Why the restrictions? They're obstacles to voting. Restrictions for the sake of restrictions. ANYBODY should be able to vote by mail if they so desire. If ANYONE can vote by mail EVERYONE can vote by mail and have the ballots all be handled the same way. It's as if a person wants to vote by mail, it's because of some nefarious motive. If you're arrested and tried, you're presumed to be innocent until proven guilty. If you want to vote by mail, you're presumed to have ulterior motives other than, just want to vote by mail.
