stopped the mails and made them completely undependable.

We will fix that once Joe is President, but for now, I won't trust my ballot to what those crooks are doing.

I hope they're prosecuted for this. Somehow the PO manages to deliver 5 billion pieces during the Christmas season, but 150 million envelopes is just too much for them? Sorry Donny, no one is buying it.

The clerks office had to receive my ballot and print a label with my address on it, then put it in another envelope and put it in the mail. My regular postman is as reliable as it gets.

sounds conspiratorial, and rightly so!

Maybe find a way to let others in your state and county know this happened. Contact the local news and try to have them cover it.
