Just curious...why can't we vote in person?

Use school gyms to spread out the voting booths. My normal location is a church. We vote in a small room where all machines are next to one another. They have a gym on the property. Why can't they move it there? Schools are all over and have gyms, shouldn't be a problem to do this all over the country.
I remember when I was younger election day there was no school and they voted in they gym.
Why can't they do this now and have the election this fall? It makes Dems happy by doing it on time, and Pubs happy by eliminating the massive mail-in.
What am I missing?

It's a secret Dem plot.

Step 1: Get people to believe Covid is real and contagious. (The Mask Hoax)
Step 2: Get people to believe that you can mail in your ballot just as easily as catching a contagious disease from someone else at a polling place. (The US Mail Hoax)
Step 3: Have a lot of people vote by mail.
Step 4: ?
Step 5: Profit.

I vote in an elementary school gym, always way spaced out.

um, the voting layout, not me.
But I'm for easy, secure and accurate voting, not for making voting more difficult. Pubs have a problem with changing demographics, but strategies to reduce voting is not the solution.
Maybe if in person is essential, they make it a national holiday.

I thought the idea was to allow mail-in voting.

Not to prevent in-person voting. Are they closing all the polling places?

volunteers to run the polls and will have to reduce the number of polling stations. It's always older retired people at my precinct. With all the unemployed people, it seems we could pay younger people to do it if we got the funding. But the Senate will never go for it because part of their strategy is to reduce the number of polling stations and reduce the number of votes.

by making them prove who they are with an ID or that they are actually alive if we don't vote in person.

and mail it in just like he does.
If everyone over 65 can vote absentee by mail no question and have been for years, why not everyone that wants too?

"Request an application for yourself or your immediate family member from the county voter registration office in your county of residence by phone, mail, email, or fax. You will be mailed an application."
The control is in the voter registration rolls. Could they be scrubbed better, in a legit, non-suppression type way (eliminating dead people, checking addresses, etc)? Prolly so.
But they're not gonna being mailing out ballots like Val Pack coupons.
