    Mail in ballots are just as easily placed in any blue post office box or your own mailbox which is impossible for would be destructors/interceptors to know when your ballot is in the mail.

    Republicans can get bent.

    They’ll just start blowing up the mailboxes, which would also serve the purpose of sowing distrust and unreliability in our postal system.

      If there’s one organization you don’t fuck with its the U.S. Mail. Touch their shit and they won’t hesitate for a second to jail you. Postal inspectors take their jobs extremely seriously.

        It’s easy to say that, but the GOP already got their man on the inside there as well with Louis DeJoy.

      It’s even easier to use your individual home mailbox to mail it. The postage is pre-paid 🤷‍♀️

      It’s completely anonymous as to when and whom you vote for.
