The US postal service is slowing delivery! If you get your ballot by mail then it's best to return completed ballots at a drop box! Or take your ballot to a post office to get it postmarked. https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/the-postal-service-is-slowing-delivery-will-your-mail-ballot-be-affected/ "Late ballots were already a problem even before the postal service reductions. Nearly 104,000 ballots were rejected in the 2024 general election because they arrived too late, according to federal data." #USPol #Elections #USPS #Vote #Voting #VoteByMail #VoteAtHome
