Subject: RE: BS: illegal voter roll purges, vote spoilage
Changing the election date in the US would require a Constitutional Amendment -- nigh unto impossible to achieve. But switching to vote by mail or adding early voting can be done by simple vote of state legislatures, and switching to paper ballots or adding more voting machines usually can be done just by the office of state Secretaries Of State.
As long as polling ENDS on the first Tuesday in November in the US, no Constitutional Amendment is required.
