That, in addition to postal employees being told to charge more for ballots.

All attempts to dissuade mail ballots, and cause chaos and confusion.

I do not profess to know all, but read that procedures have been changed that no longer require all mail to be physically delivered.

It is a mess and being used relative to November. Never thought this could happen in my country.

But, if the postal employees are allowed they want to get it done.
The assumption is that "most or all persons cannot get up and put on a mask and go to a polling station just like they did before a mask was part of the equation. (A very low expectation)

But we do expect them to be able to go to the store and buy food and other stuff. We expect working people to go to work. I see people of all ages and physical conditions playing golf, walking etc.

If someone is truly in need of vote by mail , absentee ballots are available as usual. No change in the system is required. No extra money. We already have multiple voting dates to accommodate schedules.
