I rise today and thank my colleague from Oregon and also thank him for his work on the voting bill. We just had a discussion with Senator Blunt about that, and while we didn't agree on the bill, there is a discussion that is ongoing--as we head into another COVID package, possibly, which we really believe we need to--on working on some funding issues for the States as we look at more and more balloting from home and how important that is. I want to thank Senator Wyden for his leadership for so long on that issue. I brought up his home State in a speech about an hour or so ago and the work that Oregon has done with ballot-by-home and, I think, ballots from home. I actually think I used the number of percentage of fraud as 0.0000001, or something like that, to show that what the President said is not true; that we have had, actually, in many States across the country--including Utah, a redder State--a big success with voting from home.
