The US will witness quite an unusual presidential race this autumn due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Democratic Party is doing its best to promote mail-in voting, even though many warn that this could greatly increase the chances of fraud. Some analysts believe that a universal vote-by-mail option may benefit Joe Biden, so stock market speculator George Soros, one of the Democratic Party’s most generous supporters, is doing everthing to ensure that US citizens would have to post their ballots in November.

The US presidential race will be held on 3 November. Due to the coronavirus, however, this year s voting will be quite unusal. Joe Biden s supporters are keen to avoid an in-person election, while Donald Trump s sympathizers point out that mail voting would increase the chances of fraud. Their doubts may be supported by a case in Atlanta when a citizen found a voter registration application addressed to his cat, who died 12 years ago. Many also believe that the US Post is not prepared to handle the situation.

Democrats are in favour of mail voting, as research suggests that they could benefit from it. Former President Barack Obama says Trump is trying to „actively kneecap” the US postal service, even though he himself had also criticised the US post office for several of its dificiencies.

We know that George Soros has a vested interest in preventing Donald Trump from winning another term. The stock market speculator is spending a fortune on the campaign, with some of his funding sent to organisations that actively promote mail voting.

According to former Republican representative Bob Barr, „Soros and a handful of fellow far-left true believers are well on their way to investing billions of dollars to ensure that tens of millions of mailed-in ballots decide who will be our next president.”

„Mail-in voting maximizes the chance for fraud”, Barr suggests.

The Brennan Center for Justice, part of New York University s Law School, is one of the staunch advocates of postal voting. According to the website of American media watchdog MRC, Brennan Center for Justice received more than 7.4 million dollars from Soros s Open Society Foundations (OSF) between 2000 and 2010, and the stock market speculator has not stopped supporting the organisation even since. According to its 2019 annual report, OSF granted the center between 500 and 999 thousand dollars, while George Soros pumped more than 1 million dollars into Brennan Center In 2018. The exact figures have not been disclosed.

This spring, the organisation published a lengthy analysis focusing on postal voting regarding and the 2020 presidential race in the context of the novel coronavirus. The study has been picked up and covered extensively by several left-wing press outlets, including the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Politico. In addition, it was also cited by Democratic senators.

A group of activists called Stand Up America began to aggressively push the plans worked out by Brennan Center. The group used more than 20 million dollars to launch a programme with the aim of encouraging voters to demand that the US Congress fund in-mail voting.

Sponsors of Stand Up America include an organisation called Sixteen Thirty Fund. In 2018 alone, Sixteen Thirty Fund received more than 4.2 million dollars in grants from OSF.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is also a staunch advocate of postal voting. In 2014, ACLU announced it on its official website that it had been awarded 50 million dollars by George Soros s foundation.

Organisations promoting mail ballots also include advocacy groups such as Public Citizen and Common Cause. The former was granted 820 thousand dollars by OSF in 2018, while the latter was funded with 25 thousand dollars in 2016, by favour of George Soros.

Another organisation called the Center for Secure and Modern Elections – with links to the New Venture Fund – also tapped into George Soros s OSF coffers, receiving over 4.5 million dollars in 2018 alone.
