5. If it were possible, I'd walk my absentee ballot to its destination before I'd mail it.

At least I would have more confidence that it would get there and get there on time.
At my small Wisconsin city of 50,000 we could once mail a letter across town and it would get there the next day. Now, it gets sent 150 miles to St. Paul, processed, then sent back the 150 miles. If you're lucky, your mail that once got across town in a day might take 4 or 5 days. I wonder if this was a DeJoy special?
