Yeah, that's the gap. It's one of the few places where the Republicans got their shit together nationally on voter integrity laws. A lot of states stopped mail in voting after Covid, because Covid was the justification they needed in the first place. Then the Republicans started working on banning it as much as possible, or shifting it to absentee voting which is a safer process, which has to be requested ahead of time in person, has a signature confirmation, address confirmation, and ID.

That's basically the majority of that gap, even more than printed votes. It's probably something like 10 million mail-in votes weren't cast. We'll know if someone does a proper breakdown, but that seems to be it.
