But see the following;
The U.S. Postal Service’s official policy is to deliver all absentee and mail-in ballots, regardless of whether they have proper postage, according to spokeswoman Sue Brennan. If there’s no stamp or not enough postage, the Postal Service charges the local board of elections instead.
Can you imagine the USPO had to bill the local government for insufficient mail from thousands of offices to Sumter County Election commission and countless others.
No wonder they need money. Pay your fair share.

I voted by mail in the Pennsylvania Primary. The ballot package I received was oversized for a standard envelope, but not overweight, and as it was sent by the state, it didn’t come with a regular stamp.
What I returned was in a regular size envelope with a slightly smaller envelope and ballot inside that. It only needed one first class stamp. Have any of you voted by mail in Florida before and noted the postage needed?
