There is a way around it:
1. Request a mail-in ballot.
2. Do not mail it.
3. Google your supervisor of elections to see where you can drop off your mail-in ballot. Its usually NOT THE POLLING PLACE.
All states allow this! 2/

Here is what you're accomplishing by doing this:
1. Your ballot gets in on time no matter what happens to the USPS.
2. You don't have to worry about standing in long lines and risking infection. You're just stopping by to drop it off.
3. You still voted! Hooray! 3/

Also, when you drop it off, find out how to track it online to make sure it is verified. Minnesota, California, Oregon, Washington, and Colorado have systems that can track your ballot just like tracking a package from Amazon. 4/
The list of drop-off sites is always posted on each county's voter info website. 5/5
