If you want to vote by mail please do so as soon as you can and consider dropping it off at the counter where they will postmark it right away.

Also if you live in a state where you're allowed to photograph your ballot consider doing so to have proof you voted a certain way.

Note that as a counterpoint the federal register website claims they are just clarifying language to improve public understanding: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/08/12/2025-15266/postmarks-and-postal-possession

I didn't check that document very closely yet.

Welp, I'll be forwarding this to the people I know that send in their votes by mail, to make sure they get the ballots mailed in within a few days of getting them.

More to the point, I wonder how many MAGA farts will see their ballots tossed because of this? MOST of the older conservative voters I know use mail in ballots.

Who's got the popcorn?

And then if Dems win, guess who they'll say cheated.

They will say Dems cheated even if they win.

Clearly worried about the midterms and working on ways to screw voters in blue areas, I see.

These changes disproportionately affect rural areas.The Postal Service is reducing trips between mailboxes and post offices more than 50 miles from a regional hub. So that means rural areas and even urban areas that are far from a regional hub will see disproportionate reduction in mail delivery performance, and will be more likely to see a delay in postmarking.

This is just the start of Republicans rigging the 2026 midterms even more to prevent the huge sweep that is going to happen.

They tried really hard to throw away 60,000 votes in NC to steal a seat from the Democratic winner, but finally lost after a 8 month battle.

2024 will now be "The Year Of Dear Leader (YDL) One."
