URGENT: Please DO NOT develop quick work arounds for returning absentee ballots in your community without knowing the law in your state.Laws on absentee ballots vary
Trump & DeJoy WANT people to abandon the #USPS. We must keep the pressure on the #USPS to do their job.

Some people are talking about returning their ballots by Fed-Ex, UPS...
This is really EXPENSIVE and some state laws prevent private companies from handling absentee ballots.
DeJoy needs to do his job and stop the sabotage. #USPSisEssential 2/8 https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/512146-ups-fedex-shut-down-calls-to-handle-mail-in-ballots-warn-of-significant

Some are planning to collect absentee ballots for voters in their neighborhood.
Some states have limits on how many absentee ballots people can return. For example, in WV, you can only return 2.
It's a pain, but the laws vary across the country.

Drop boxes, in those states that provide them, are great! They give voters more options for returning ballots. But please don't create your own! Drop boxes are safe and secure only when provided by election officials.
Keep holding Louis DeJoy's feet to the fire. #USPS

In some states, the postmark provided by the #USPS is key in determining if your absentee ballot counts.
Yet another reason why we shouldn't look to Fed-Ex as the answer.
What we need is for Louis DeJoy needs to stop the sabotage. #USPSprotest

2020 is a powerful reminder of the need to make it easier for Americans to vote. It shouldn't be this easy for Louis DeJoy to cause such chaos.
Read my op-ed on the #USPSsabotage crisis. We must fight to ensure this never happens again.

(I screwed up all the numbers on this thread but you get the point).
With 79 days until the November 3rd election, we have enough time to make a plan to vote now.
Work-arounds may only complicate things and is exactly what Trump/DeJoy want.
Keep the heat on #USPS. #USPSprotest
