Mandatory turnout (voting is voluntary, but you have to wait in line anyways) is another good idea, which arguably would be more extreme.

I would assume there would be leniency for those who are disabled/unable to get to the voting booth due to medical reasons? Like let's say someone goes into labor on election day? Or they get hit by a car. Or don't have access to public transportation, or simply are old and cannot get there easily.

If those issues can be fixed, then I would trust mail-in voting more. But, for now I do early voting and research everything months in advance.

You got proof of all those claims?
USPS for what is does it’s job. Recent problems have been all the “free market” shit being spewed.
I am curious why they haven’t tossed that Trumpest yet.
I have used the mail in for years. No issues.

They've literally put bags or taped up all of the Blue Mailboxes (the ones that are outside of the post office buildings). News Agencies here have reported (as close as '21) of mail being dumped instead of being delivered.
Those are just from the first page. There are news stories for it dating back 6 or 7 years.
