Vote by mail system helped Dems win big in DuPage

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : A federal district court and an appellate court ruled against a lawsuit originally filed in 2023 by Illinois U.S. Rep. Mike Bost, R- Murphysboro, attempting to stop the count of ballots received after midnight on election days, even if they're postmarked by election day itself (identical to the rules for mailing income tax returns by deadline dates).
42% : And now Trump has reversed course again, issuing an executive order that in part commands the U.S. attorney general to take "all necessary action" against states which count mailed-in ballots that arrive after federal election days.
23% : "Some Democratic victories will undoubtedly be attributed to Trump backlash," Batinick said before the election.
23% : The reason for the Republican aversion to voting by mail is that Trump has long blasted it as a way for Democrats to steal elections.
