US Post Office Harms Mail-In Ballots Again
King Stupid hired Louis DeJoy to slow down the postal service because “he” thought mail-in ballots helped Democrats.
Louis DeJoy’s Original Harms
The Post Office’s New Harm
The new harm is to mandate that mail is no longer postmarked when it is given to the post office. No. Now the procedure is to hold all mail for several days and postmark it later.
That means that if you want your ballot
to be postmarked on time
so it is counted in the election
you have to deliver it to a post office
and demand that it be MANUALLY POSTMARKED.

Important update at USPS!!!
As of December 24, 2025, the postal service has quietly changed its post mark policy. The policy has always been that mail is postmarked on the day it is picked up by the carrier. (If you put a letter in the mail on January 5th, it is postmarked January 5th).
That has now changed.
Under the new policy, letters and packages are postmarked later at the processing facility. This means a postmark will no longer reflect the date a piece of mail is deposited in the mailbox, but rather the date it is processed (which can be days later).
Why is this important?
The Trump Administration has been working hard to restrict and even outlaw mail-in voting. Mail-in ballots are incredibly important, especially to disabled, elderly, and disenfranchised voters. The majority of vote-by-mail ballots are sent in by Democrat voters, which is exactly why Trump wants them done away with.
This new policy, quietly rolled out this month by USPS, could lead to [tens of] thousands of voters losing their vote due to [this new delaying tactic]. The rule for mail-in voting has always been that the ballot must be mailed by a certain day (which is validated by the postmark).
If you thought the mail was slow after the criminal acts of Louis DeJoy, mail delivery will be even slower now.
With postmarks now being delayed, last minute ballots being mailed in will be mislabeled [postmarked after the deadline] as “late” and disqualified.
If you or someone you know uses Vote By Mail, please take note of this sneaky new change and ensure that your ballots are mailed out immediately upon completion.
