  • Copying my comment from a related thread:

    Just wanted to say that in many of the mail-only states, you can still cut out the post office. For example, in WA, you can print out your ballot at home and drop it into a ballot box. There's no requirement to use the postal service.

    For WA, simply sign into votewa.gov, navigate to "Your Ballot & Voting Materials", then "Get a replacement ballot", and finally, select "Print a replacement ballot". Additionally, you can request pick up a new ballot in person on the same "Get a replacement ballot" page.

    While everyone should be able to vote through mail, I highly discourage returning your ballot through the postal service for obvious reasons. Most counties in WA have placed plenty of ballot boxes, usually there is one within a mile or so of you. VoteWA shows drop box locations as well.

  • WA sues Trump administration again over mail ballot restrictions

    Jump

  • Hobbs said he was confident the lawsuit would succeed in blocking the new regulations, but that if it failed, voters should use drop boxes to return their ballots to reduce the risk of the Postal Service not delivering them.

    This is key. Never use the postal service to send your ballots back, and if you don't get one from the state because the postal service blocked it, in WA, you can print it at home and drop it in a dropbox.

  • Supreme Court Allows Trump Plan to Restrict Mail-In Voting, for Now

    Jump

  • We don't live in a place where we get a day off to vote, but we do have mail in voting which has proven to increase turnout. While the problems you've mentioned are real for some, the vast majority of mail in voters enjoy not having to stress about when they can vote because they're working three jobs - they can drop it off on the way to work. Mail in voting boosts how many people vote, full stop, and it's enough to counter non-federal influences like the ones you've mentioned here.

    Shitting on mail in voting is doing the republicans a favor, there's a reason they want to get rid of it, and it's not because of vote manipulation, abuse of voters, or dead people voting.
