The problem with voting early is that you provide more paper ballots for the GOP to challenge and delay final results of the election. Despite what the prez claims, results are not final on Election Day because absentee and mailed ballots are not counted until after the polls close, and the choice for any president is not final until the Electoral College meets in early December. And it's not fully official until Congress opens and reads the Electoral College results in early January. Meanwhile, the GOP can mount legal challenges each step of the way, forcing the final choice into the House of Representatives.
Remember Bush v Gore and the so-called "hanging chads," which led to many votes being discarded.
