Voter Disenfranchisement Risks Rise After USPS Ends Same-Day Postmarks
USPS officials announced that mail will no longer receive guaranteed same-day postmarks following transportation cost-cutting measures implemented as part of a ten-year reorganization plan.The agency advises individuals requiring specific postmark dates for tax payments or ballots to request manual processing from clerks or use certified mail services to ensure delivery tracking.These operational changes follow the 2024 general election where nearly 600,000 ballots were rejected and occur as the
Supreme Court reviews Mississippi's postmarking deadlines.
