Trump gets Rep nomination, says poll being rigged
Trump told Republicans to be on alert for what he claimed was a Democratic plan to rig the contest through increased use of mail-in voting- a measure Democrats say is needed to protect people from catching COVID-19 in crowded polling stations. Opponents say Trump's increasingly extreme resistance to expanded mail-in voting is an attempt to suppress voter turnout, while setting up an excuse to challenge the result if he is defeated.

Also, Cato Institute estimates it would contract the US economy by at least $7.5 billion annually. Nearly 90% of H-4 workers are highly paid women from India with college degrees.
