State and federal authorities are investigating a deliberately set fire that destroyed ballots inside a drop box in southwest Washington on Monday morning.
Drop boxes are only one aspect of voting by mail. Cameras, “election integrity guards” or other means and measures could be employed to help dissuade these terrorists.
Mail in ballots are just as easily placed in any blue post office box or your own mailbox which is impossible for would be destructors/interceptors to know when your ballot is in the mail.
Republicans can get bent.
They’ll just start blowing up the mailboxes, which would also serve the purpose of sowing distrust and unreliability in our postal system.
If there’s one organization you don’t fuck with its the U.S. Mail. Touch their shit and they won’t hesitate for a second to jail you. Postal inspectors take their jobs extremely seriously.
It’s easy to say that, but the GOP already got their man on the inside there as well with Louis DeJoy.
Can’t wait for some magat to get gunned down by a postal inspector.
It’s even easier to use your individual home mailbox to mail it. The postage is pre-paid 🤷♀️
It’s completely anonymous as to when and whom you vote for.
Republicans already destroyed the USPS, so home mailboxes are no better. High likelihood of ballots getting “lost in the mail” until after counting has stopped.
I have had so many problems with our automated rent checks showing up on time in the last few years. I can clearly see our credit union sending them on time, and they’re eventually received with the appropriate timestamps, but we’re weeks late in arrival.
