Setting up a potential legal showdown over California's presidential election, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday announced the state will send every voter a mail-in ballot for the November contest
Gavin Newsom's decision was praised by Democratic Secretary of State Alex Padilla, who said there is"no safer ... way to exercise your right to vote than from the safety and convenience of your own home."
In-person voting places will remain available for those who might need them. But it wasn't immediately clear how many would be available or where they would be located. President Donald Trump has been among the skeptics and has said that "a lot of people cheat with mail-in voting." "To mail out millions of ballots to voter rolls have proven to contain alarming errors throughout the state is not a task that these Democrats can adequately manage or safely execute," she said in a statement.
