The \u2063skepticism \u2064and concerns raised by Republicans \u2063regarding mail-in voting and\u200d potential fraud\u200b should not be dismissed. It is important to strike a balance between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/independent-sen-angus-king-says-he-wont-support-dem-voting-rights-bill\/\" title=\"Independent Sen.
