At the states, we don't issue absentee ballots, we don't register voters, and we actually don't have a lot of statutory authority over maintaining the voter rolls.

They're the ones that issue absentees, that count the ballots and that maintain the voter list and ensure that they're accurate. Do that all day, every day. (23:04–23:13)
