Majority of voters believe ballot harvesting should be against the law

A solid majority of voters believe the practice of ballot harvesting should be illegal in the U.S., according to a new Just the News Daily Poll with Scott Rasmussen.

When asked, 58% said that ballot harvesting—an activity in which individuals collect mail-in ballots from other voters and submit them on the voters' behalf—should be against the law. Just 15% said it should be legal, while 27% were unsure.
