We'll probably get mail ballots and then drop them off directly at the Board of Elections Office. But we, A, have a car so we can do that pretty safely, and B, are voters who 100% do not fucking matter.

Obviously, I'm in the same boat on B. But I hadn't even considered A. We also have a car so that's a great tip.

But you'd still have to have an intermediary--and maybe the Dems can rally enough people to GOTV this way (sort of like an updated drive-to-the-polls situation), but I have a hard time imagining that this doesn't mostly hurt Dem areas.

If this was anywhere else the US would invade to ‘protect democracy’.
First of all, there are no "centres" of any kind in the US. Talk English, you foreigner.
Also, those dropboxes have been going away for decades. We don't mail stuff that way anymore.
Also, Trump's a criminal who is going to kill the post office to steal the election.
You don’t have mail sorting centres in the US? Country of near 350 million? What, your mail just magically arrives?

Strat, post the pic I sent you where it’s obvious that eds daughters have been warned about Biden and their backs are to the wall and they’re holding each other and he’s Looming over them, about to pounce
That’ll get him a vote or two on here.

Yes but he’ll also be limiting the amount of elderly people who are pissed about his messing with their social security
are the elderly the key factor in the swing states ?
my guess is it's more about the suburban white women and minorities
honest question
i expect an answer on my desk by tomorrow morning

I have voted by mail for like 20 years. I don’t see why it’s such a big deal.

And mail isn’t being collected from them or delivered.
My pal in NYC’s told her building isn’t essential. She’s waiting weeks to get mail.
How’s this affected the elderly or those with chronic conditions awaiting medication through the mail?
Trump hasn’t thought this through.
