You are correct. I think the problem is that the dates some states used are not long enough. I think one state (might be NY) said you could request a ballot up to 4 days before the election. So on day 4 I put my request in the mail box early in the day. Picked up by PO and sorted on the night shift. On day 3 gets delivered to elections officials in the afternoon. Assuming they are not busy???? gets processed and goes out in day 2's mail and I get it on day 1. Now I have to vote and it will get back to them after the election date. Some states allow up to 2 days. At any rate for on 1 million dollars I will consult with them and suggest that they move the dates back a week or two so THEY and the PO has time to process. Maybe I should get a bonus of another million for savings all those billions.
