U.S. Postal Service Has Urgent Message For People Voting By Mail
HuffPost
Mail-in voters broke a record during the 2020 election.
The U.S. Postal Service has advised mail-in voters to send their ballots in a week early, according to a Monday statement.
Though deadlines for the return of vote-by-mail ballots vary by state, the Postal Service has urged voters with a deadline of Nov. 5 to send their ballots in by Tuesday, Oct. 29.
“The Postal Service remains fully ready to successfully deliver the nation’s mail-in ballots for voters who choose to use us to vote,” the Postal Service said. “And to be clear, even for return ballots that are entered in our system after Tuesday, we will continue to deploy our ‘extraordinary measures,’ which are designed to accelerate the delivery of Ballot Mail in the final weeks of the election season.”
The term “extraordinary measures” refers to the expedited time frame that the Postal Service typically employs for general elections. This year it started on Oct. 21.
