And what's going to happen in Wisconsin, what's going to happen in Georgia and across the country, is that we are going to give people too much credit for things they did and not pay attention to what they are doing. They are trying to eliminate vote by mail. The president has said he wants to, by executive order, eliminated. He can't or he shouldn't be able to because the Constitution accords that power to the states. But if we don't fight back and demand that vote by mail continue to be permitted, that's not just about whether Democrats or Republicans vote. (52:13–52:21)
