    USPS - Dependable enough for an election?

    I put this in rant because it is personal experience but:

    Yesterday. I got a call from my distributor in New York. She was just laughing because she received our account statement yesterday which was postmarked Feb 25th, 2019. She only called because we are friendly and she thought it was funny. I don't know how that even happens.

    I received 1 of 2 packages yesterday but both were recorded as delivered. One they said went to the mailbox(yes it was) and one to the front door (it wasn't. The door was open for light and we heard him drive up so I went out to the mailbox. It was not stolen.

    Are these the people handling our voting ballots?

    Actually they will not handle mine because I will vote in person. And I don't mean to be hypoer critical of USPS but trust your vote to them? I thought we are always told how important it was.

    Nope!

    We can vote in person. Allow 2 extra days and go by Alpha last names. a thru whatever day 1.


    There is a reason the dems do not want this to happen. Isn't that is obvious by now?
    I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.

    I will vote in person. I've done mail-in before but with the increased voting by mail this year, and the higher risk of rejection, I'm going to make the 10-mile-drive to the polling booth.

    It's the safest way.

    I love my USPS delivery lady but I've found brand new magazines before that had coffee rings on interior pages. LOL

    I will be there in person as well. I am hoping there are some Democrats there that I can harass.

    I vote absentee but deliver my ballot to my polling place in person, so I know it makes in the ballot box that is sealed and locked.
