US President Donald Trump has recently begun laying the groundwork for casting doubt on election results.
The doubt, he has argued, would be legitimate if counting mail-in ballots delays the declaration of a winner.
But according to CNN, Trump on Tuesday made an apparent about-face on the issue--at least with respect to Florida.
He claimed Florida's election system is 'safe and secure' and encouraged Floridians to vote by mail.
Elections experts have repeatedly underscored that there are strict measures in place to verify the authenticity of all ballots cast by mail.
When asked about the reversal, Trump implied Republican-run states with existing mail-in voting programs were up-to-par, but Democratic states were not.
