Postal Service won't deliver mail ballots for states that don't hand over voter lists, under plan for Trump directive [View all]

https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/10/politics/postal-service-deliver-mail-in-ballots

Which means you will not be getting a ballot let alone be able to mail it back. If you’re in a blue state and they refused to bow to the piece of shit, you’ll only be able to vote in person which in some places will be impossible because of the lines or because you have to work etc.

If only some folks had not held their nose and made sure everybody knew they were holding their nose goddamnit🤬

State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots
