postal issues

[Gunny@143]

I sent my DS his ballot to vote 3 weeks ago. He still did not receive it. Is the mail room still having problem with sorting the mail.

The post office has gotten a lot better (Mids can now leave to buy stuff instead of ordering online, + all UPS and FedEx deliveries get sorted by volunteer mids once per week instead of having the USPS workers do it). That said there’s always been some delay and 3 weeks would be long but not unheard of. I do believe in most states that as long as the ballot is postmarked by election day it will still be counted, so there’s definitely hope.

If possible, send mail/packages c/o the sponsor family.

Be careful and check for the specific state, though - for example, in my state, the absentee ballot has to be received by election day, not postmarked.
