President Trump expanded his mail-in voting message, encouraging NC supporters to vote absentee even as he continued to assail vote-by-mail. Election experts have told CNN there is no real difference between absentee voting and no-excuse mail voting.

Absentee ballots are great."In recent months, Trump has increasingly tried to discredit mail-in voting. He falsely tweeted in July:"Mail-In Voting is already proving to be a catastrophic.
