PHOENIX (AP) U.S. Attorney General William Barr delivered a broadside attack on mail-in voting Thursday, attacking the process used by many Americans including the vast majority of Arizonans as prone to undue influence and coercion.
The Republican also said that mail-in ballots impinge on the historic American tradition of the secret ballot, an attack refuted by Arizona and other states that allow widespread mail-in balloting.
Barr was in Phoenix to announce a crackdown on methamphetamine trafficking that netted $43 million in cash seizures, more than 28,000 pounds of the illicit stimulant, more than 1,800 arrests and the seizure of hundreds of guns. The operation targeted Mexican cartels that smuggled drugs to major U.S. cities and then distributed them nationwide.
But Barr spent the majority of his time answering questions unrelated to the drug busts and instead on the unrest around the nation tied to racial injustice, his departments intervention in a private lawsuit accusing President Donald Trump of defamation and on mail-in voting.

Speaking as one who lives in a state that's voted by mail for over a decade Barr can go fuck himself.
He suffers from the same fear Trump does. Once out of office it's likely he may end up in prison.
