Trump: Delaying election better than mail-in voting

EPA-EFE/SARAH SILBIGER

United States President Donald Trump suggested on Thursday in a tweet that delaying the November elections would be better than allowing mail-in ballots, which he thinks lead to electoral fraud.

"With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???," Trump wrote.

A presidential election in the United States has never been delayed in history. However, Congress has the power to set a different election day if it wants to and even to choose what should happen if an election cannot take place even though a president's term has expired.
