I understand the need or desire to vote by mail, but I always like the analogy of how much do you trust the USPS? Would you put a $100 bill in the mail and mail it to yourself?
I would absolutely trust the postal system to deliver the envelope with $100 back to me. I would be less trusting of the people working in the system who might recognize the content as a $100 bill.

I would absolutely trust the postal system to deliver the envelop with a mail-in ballot. I would also trust that the people working in the system couldn't care less about a mail-in ballot.
