JUST SO WE ARE CLEAR:

GOING TO THE POST OFFICE TO PERSONALLY HAVE YOUR VOTE POSTMARKED DOES NOT SOLVE VOTER SUPPRESSION

THIS IS A POLL TAX.

what of the cost to people who don’t have a post office nearby?

what of the cost to people who don’t have easy transportation to a post office?

what of disabled people who cannot go personally to get that postmark?

because the next step is to say exactly that: your vote won’t count if somebody else gets the postmark for you.

THIS IS JIM CROW FASCISM

so the #AltTxt #yaddayadda to the above QP:

❝ USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later

Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it's a clever way to disenfranchise voters that's going largely overlooked ❞

just remember: Biden was never in a hurry to get rid of fellow corporatists, like DeJoy, that Trump spread across USGov like herpes.

@blogdiva I will never forgive Biden for not firing Louis DeJoy. He absolutely could have at SOME point in his term and he didn't.
