Thanks for the guest link. Man, I used to love the USPS. How is this plan supposed to work in states that have all-mail elections?
I know that in King county, Washington, you can print your own ballot, fill it out, and deliver it to a ballot drop box. This is still bullshit because there will be a huge number of people who can’t do that or won’t know they need to.
I wouldn’t expect the rule to be followed everywhere. Postal workers in an all mail state might just ignore it as nonsensical. Some workers in other states might as well, but this gives MAGA workers the green light to meddle. And if a bunch of votes get blocked/destroyed that introduces uncertainty in the result that can be capitalized on by incumbent fascists.
It’s supposed to prevent them from holding elections so they have no representation in Congress
