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 think the biggest fear is they’ll be to much under the table dealings going on! Because who pays for it would be worth it for some unnamed party! There’s more to it than just mailing them in, because going to your precinct always worked before!
