Gavin Newsom (D) signed a voting bill into law, one which Republicans have highly opposed. The legislation, signed by Newsom on Monday, would require the state to send mail-in ballots to all registered voters for future elections.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, voters had to request a mail-in ballot for specific reasons. However, the new law would allow all California voters to get a mail-in ballot even if it wasn\u2019t requested.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans have said the mass mailing of ballots could lead to potential fraud, while proponents said mail-in ballots made voting more convenient.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey still have the opportunity to vote in person if they prefer, but the mail in ballot is going to get sent to them event without them requesting one,\u201d explained Allen Bolar, professor at California State University Bakersfield. \u201cI think before the pandemic hit, we were already to 60 or even 70 percent of voters mailing in their vote. That increased last year.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">All active registered voters in our state will permanently receive a mail-in ballot for EVERY election, thanks to<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AsmMarcBerman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AsmMarcBerman<\/a>&#8216;s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AB37?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AB37<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re making voting easier than ever in California.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fJnPwSvwli\">https:\/\/t.co\/fJnPwSvwli<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Office of the Governor of California (@CAgovernor) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CAgovernor\/status\/1442571571546099712?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 27, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>California has joined several other Democrat-led states in making universal mail-in voting permanent.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/fla-sues-biden-admin-over-catch-and-release-border-policy\/\">Fla.
