OK folks. Think about this. I get about 5 pieces of mail a day. I suspect all of us do roughly. So if we all voted one day, at the same time, it would barely be a blip.
That being said....the US post offices warned 46 states that voting by mail could cause folks to be disenfranchised. And at the same time stories have been showing up about mail being delayed, and piling up. The post office is being mismanaged. And it appears that that is being done intentionally. This is a felony. Those responsible should be removed from office and arrested. Simple logic. Commit a crime, do the time.
Due to COVID quarantines the postal service at the moment does not have the manpower to put a carrier on every delivery point 6 days a week even with postal workers being on a 12 hour scheduled in many districts.. Along with a lack of manpower is a Christmas level spike in parcels. But without the postal clerk staff to distribute those pieces to the routes they are delayed until a body can be found to move them the next step. Not enough bodies can be found to distribute everything coming in to its proper route just as there are not enough bodies for the service man every route and visit every delivery point 6 days a week.
Now come election day because the carriers on overtime might be out past the time the last dispatch truck has to leave for the plant to give them time to do their work the service can't guarantee that letters and ballots picked up from the homes at the end of a carrier routes being worked on the 10th to 12th hours of election Tuesday can get processed that night to meet election board requirements. A man can only be one place at once and thus some places just can't be reached in time when relying on not enough staffing and using overtime to try to cover for not enough staffing.
As always with postal operations it is the last piece that trips it up. Anything left out for the mailman the day before, assuming COVID quarantines ease up and a carrier is on every route 6 days a week again by then or put in the blue collection box before the cutoff time on its printed label will be able to get to the election board.
But wait. It's only a crime is you do it . If I do it it's ok. Don't forget that .
Yes it's a crime. Who you gonna call? The Feds? We ARE the Feds!!! Lol. That's the whole point of power. The Trump Admin is the Feds. They answer to NO ONE.
The house and senate and 2.1 million civil servants are also the feds.
Trump knows once he gets voted out he will likely end up being indicted for all his crimes.
Your sides track record on successfully prosecuting its ridiculous accusations against Trump, attempting to reverse the election, defines whiff. Look up air ball in the dictionary, it has a picture of a donkey next to it. And thats with 90% of the media acting as its propaganda arm. So you arent too convincing.
Not throwing money down the drain by funding the USPS even more is the right move. Demoncrats want this crackpot idea of universal mail in voting THEY find a way to fund it because it ain't happening with Trump as president thankfully! Oh and I never said I believed in the constitution or anything else. Trump is doing what's best for America and Americans, I can see it and that doesn't mean its gotta be within the constitution that all of a sudden demoncrats claim to care about.
The postmaster general has stated there will be no trouble handling the election with the current funding. Said so all along. This is all another democrab hoax.
1 in 4 people cast their vote via mail in voting in the 2016 election. 1 in 4.This is not a rare practice that just now started on a widespread scale this election. Where was the outcry of "but voter fraud" then, or in every election since the Civil war that utilized the practice?
Anything that intentionally goes to impede, restrict, cause more difficulty, discourage any voter, cause a portion of these Amercan votes to be missed/not counted would be a travesty to our democracy and a would be a direct attack on one our most important freedoms.
Our founding fathers would be turning in their graves if they knew any generation or any sitting leadership of any political affiliation would engage in any such practice that does any of the above. Even more so that a sizable portion of Americans are on board with it because their tribe leader is on board with it
are you sure on the 1 in 4? I *think* I posted a link to the various "not at a polling place on Election Day".
