roughly 1/4 of voters have doubts that their vote will be counted in the 2020 election. The pandemics effect will soon move to the election season as voters turned toe alternatives like early voting and mail in ballots to limit potential exposure to the virus. Voters are also facing questions over those options as the president, without evidence, has railed against voting by mail and alleging fraud would occur. A new Axios Surveymonkey poll of over 2800 U. S adults found that while 73% said they were confident their vote would be accurately counted, 24% answered that they were not confident. As far as how they will vote. Over half at 54% said they would vote in person, while 42% said they would cast their ballot by mail. When asked about what they thought about the accuracy of voting by mail, 39% said there was no difference between it and voting in person, while equally 39% said mail in voting was less likely to produce accurate results.
