Many people who will be around on election day vote absentee, so they don't have to worry about getting to the polls election day. Both parties try to get voters to vote absentee. Block parties and free rides are COMMON and legal. Have been happening for 200 years.

BTW, absentee ballots are sometimes counted, sometimes not unless the election is close. So you have to check the local jurisdiction.

I will point out that Wisconsin Republicans (not Democrats) just rushed to change the laws requiring what it takes to vote in person, and many people have to jump through hoops now to do that. So it is easier for alot of legal voters to vote absentee.
