WTF, your mail-in ballot doesn't have prepaid postage? Does that not constitute a poll tax?
In India they have poll workers trekking into the mountains so that people can vote but apparently some US states can't even manage postage, world's greatest democracy folks
Wanna know a neat trick? You don't have to put stamps on a mail in ballot. The post office has to process it or it would be a pole tax. I worked at USPS through a couple elections ballots were taken way more seriously than anything else, you'll lose your job fast if you fuckup handling them. So I guarantee you no postage ballots get processed the exact same way.
That makes sense. I live in a state where there's a pretty heavy Jim Crow residue on the voting process, and a federal organization like the USPS would probably be one of the few things to cut through some of that
