Mail Delivery Lags Behind Targets

Data obtained by the Associated Press shows “postal districts across the country are missing by wide margins the agency’s own goals for on-time delivery, raising the possibility that scores of mailed ballots could miss deadlines for reaching local election offices if voters wait too long.”

“Missing a deadline is a key reason mail-in ballots get rejected.”

Bloomberg: “Postmaster General Louis DeJoy told a judge the U.S. Postal Service can’t reassemble the hundreds of high speed mail-sorting machines that were taken apart this year, a project that more than a dozen states allege was intended to undermine the upcoming election.”
