Dear President Trump,
Please pass an Executive Order Allowing US Citizens to send in their ballot, (possibly along with a photocopy of their state drivers license and/or US passport), using ANY carrier of their choice and with signed or stamped return receipt verified
People should be able to use UPS, Federal Express, DHL, and they should be able also to FAX their ballot along with a photocopy of their identification
Why am I asking for this?
I was not able to vote for you in 2016 because the US Post Office FAILED TO DELIVER MY ABSENTEE BALLOT. I verified that the local board of elections DID SEND ME the absentee ballot. I did not receive it. My neighbors would have given me the ballot if I were misdelivered. I inquired with the USPS Postal Inspector General (Who Should Be Fired) about this issue and I have been aggressively ignored several times by everyone involved for 4 yrs.
The Absentee ballot was lost in the mail and the USPS will not own their mistake. I was not sure if I could go in person and vote, and I was concerned about the possibillty of myself committing voter fraud in good faith voted in person after the issuance of an absentee ballot. (I didn't know the rules at the time, but now I know there is a complicated process called a federal write-in absentee ballot). I called the board of elections at that time to figure out what to do, and got a voicemail, and no one returned my call to tell me if I could vote. I waited until the last moment for the ballot, which was my own error. My voting location is 1.5 hours away each way because i live on the county line in the mountains. I wasn't going to drive there to find out I could not vote normally.
If Dems are going to push absentee ballots, we MUST have a trustworthy courier that can be liquidated 100% if they commit fraud. I don't believe FEDEX, UPS or DHL would risk their entire business by committing widespread voter fraud---it's not worth it to them. However, the same is NOT true for USPS who don't seem to care about business or reprisal because they are nationalized and protected by democrats.
Thank you
How about everybody with extremely rare exceptions (military deployed overseas, disabled folks) shows up in person with a valid voter ID or they don't get to vote? I'd FAR rather voting be inconvenient than insecure.
May I suggest a Citizen Voter ID required for receiving a barcoded 'absentee' ballot in the first place?
Ballot Chain-of-custody is essential.
Reason 459,823,290,234,907,325 to shut down the USPS permanently ASAP. Total failure.
Amen. I live on an "auxilliary" route, whatever that is. It's the PO excuse every time I get a notice my package was delivered and it wasn't. Plus the community cluster mailboxes get broken into.
