Post office is f'ing around again. WHY?

[LilElf70]

That friggin asswipe DeJoy is at it again. I called to check on when my absentee ballot was delivered to the post office, yesterday, 9/30. They said it was sent on 9/24. I live on the outskirts of a large metropolitan city, 10 miles from the main downtown post office. Ever since DeJoy has taken over, I have had mail delays that have been unheard of. Weeks for local mail? A year ago, my mail tracked to downtown and sat there for 3 weeks? It just so happened it was checks for my checking account, and was being tracked. Do they have a "purposely delayed section" of the Post office? I don't think so. Every time I talk to PO employees, they tell me Dejoy is out to destroy the post office. They absolutely hate him and don't have a problem telling you this. When DeJoy first moved in, he destroyed many sorters with no replacements ready to deploy. Why? So why hasn't someone done something about this loser? Now it's election season, and its pretty obvious what an absentee election ballot looks like. Are they purposely delaying them. Are they destroying them. Of course, Dejoy was a direct result from Trump. It's time for this loser to go. Ya know If I performed this bad at any job I may have had in my career, I would have been fired immediately. On top of all this, I heard there are 3 rate increases coming again within the next year for this shitty service. WTF is going on at the post office?

If I don't get my ballot soon, I am going to raise holy hell.

1. DeJoy's fuckery is the reason I'm voting in person this year.

3. Good point

Thank God there are check and balances in place for me to check the status of my ballot after I return it. If they do not receive it I will find a way to make it to the booth that day.

4. I always do early voting to avoid mail problems and lines on voting day.

And even then I sometimes get in massive lines of trumpers.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

13. Yep - I'm doing early voting Im afraid there may bomb threats

And other dirty tricks. I’m worried that a mail-in ballot might get tossed out for some bullshit reason.

2. Because NO ONE fixed the obvious mess.

We need someone to come in and confront these people and stop
allowing them to to commit crimes and conspiracies to subvert elections.

5. Getting him out should have been a top level priority.

Over the last month or so I have noticed unusual delays in my mail, and I immediately figured it was DeJoy practicing for the election.

7. Joe would have if he could have.

Sooner the better

[Susan Calvin]

10. I thought there were some positions on the board he could have filled.

But I must admit to not knowing the details. All I know is that I really really wanted and want him out. I hope at least they're watching him like a hawk.

6. i don't understand why de idiot is still in charge

[Susan Calvin]

11. He's not an idiot.

He's doing a very good job at the task he was appointed to do.

8. Anyone in a red state should try to vote in person.

I know I am.

[The Madcap]

9. agreed

We even told our kids to drive down from college to vote rather than relying on an absentee ballot. It's almost like they have a great big woodchipper ready for those.

12. Can you ask

for a provisional ballot??

[kerry-is-my-prez]

14. Yes - I've had to do that before. I think early voting is the safest.

[Morbius]

16. Provisional ballots do not get counted

Unless there is a recount, in which case you may be sure Republicans will challenge each and every one. Provisional ballots should really be renamed "Useless ballots".

Never ask for one.

[bdamomma]

17. Geez

I never knew that. I learned something.

[Oopsie Daisy]

15. I received my ballot in 5 days from mailing date...

... And I'll use a nearby drop box.

[Hekate]

18. Look, his job, as he sees it, is to transform the USPS from a public service to a privatized profit-making...

…business.

To do this, he has to prove that government does not work. To prove that, he has to make it so.

It is a tried and true method of sabotage.

19. Our mail too has been terrible since Dejoy took over!
