Local election offices reportedly received mailed ballots days after the deadline to be counted ‘in nearly every state’
State and local election officials from across the country on Wednesday warned that problems with the nation’s mail delivery system threaten to disenfranchise voters in the upcoming presidential election, telling the head of the US Postal Service (USPS) that it hasn’t fixed persistent deficiencies.
The officials said in a letter that over the past year, including the just-concluded primary season, mailed ballots that were postmarked on time were received by local election offices days after the deadline to be counted.
They also noted that properly addressed election mail was being returned to them as undeliverable.
I think the correct answer to almost any post beginning with “isn’t this illegal” is “no.”
What law do you imagine is being broken?
Election interference and potential disenfranchisement if it can be proven to be malice or a conflict of interest. You know, like how people have been accusing DeJoy of for years?
So basically “I read something about ‘election interference’ once and now I think that’s a law and how it should be enforced.”
I like how people just make up legal shit on the internet. Hey - isn’t your post giving “illegal legal advice”? I once saw an episode of Matlock where that was a thing.
Shut up
🤡
Just a reminder that the guy in charge of the USPS is the same guy as in 2020 when they tried cutting back postal services and decomissioning sorting machines in the run up to the election in “an attempt to be profitable.”
