Call any alternative to vote by mail “high barrier voting” or just what it is, “voter suppression.”

In Australia they have compulsory voting. You can actually get fined for not voting. Everyone is automatically registered to vote, in perpetuity, when they become an adult or immigrate. The government sends you a ballot that you mail in. Now, I’m not saying Australia is some paradise, but I’m saying this is how a government behaves when it actually wants its people to vote.
