Stop postal votes unless disabled and are unable to get to the polling station.

What the petition asks
Postal voting should only be for those that can’t get to the polling station due to disabilities etc. At present this way of voting could be open to exploitation and is an unfair way to vote. A visit to the polling station will ensure that it will be one vote per person.
