Dan Crenshaw calls expanding mail-in voting “playing with fire” despite rareness of voter fraudRepublicans and President Donald Trump have repeatedly tried to sow doubt over the reliability of voting by mail, alleging it allows for widespread fraud.

Crenshaw suggested in the interview that he worried that some ballots might be mailed to the wrong addresses, inviting fraud.
