Democratic convention speakers have been peddling the conspiracy theory that President Trump is working to “sabotage” the U.S. Postal Service. Mr. Trump is working to fix longstanding USPS problems, and the complaints are a distraction from the Democrats’ radical proposal for a universal vote-by-mail system, which the president has rightly said is riddled with chaos and fraud.
New Jersey learned that lesson the hard way with its universal vote-by-mail primary in May. It was a disaster from the beginning: In Paterson, a handful of fraudsters affected the outcome of an election and up to a quarter of voters in some areas were disenfranchised. Gov. Phil Murphy calls those results “overwhelmingly a success.”
Last week, with a stroke of his pen, the governor decided to subject New Jersey voters to the same fate this November.
