  1. What a surprise. The #USPS has changed the rules for the #postmark date of mail. As of last Wednesday, December 24, the postmark date is the day they #process the mail piece, NOT the day you drop it off. If you do #VBM, try to find a secure #dropbox. If you can’t, put your #ballot in the mail far ahead of time or, if you can, take it to the #postoffice and have the agent there #postmark it in front of you. #votersuppression

  4. Oregon has been at the forefront of Vote By Mail (#VBM) since 1981. It has been a great system with, as far as I can tell, very few issues. In some ways I do miss going to an actual voting booth, but I love the convenience and easy ability to research and ponder each and every #vote I cast. I truly feel for those standing in long lines waiting to vote, hoping to vote, worried about voter suppression, getting time off work, perhaps dealing with illness yet still #voting.

  5. @LGmedia yup, #Texas also makes folks sign up every year for #votebymail #VBM participation dropped precipitously in 2022. We’re stuck doing cutesy outreach like New Years letters to voters enclosing the tedious state form in 10-point type.

  6. After a successful outcome in Ohio this week, we are moving on to our next postcard writing campaign - Seminole County, FL. Sending fun, friendly postcards to Democrats to encourage re-registration for vote by mail #VBM ahead of the 2024 primary season. Won't you join us? Postcards to Voters #PTV are friendly, handwritten reminders from volunteers to targeted voters giving Democrats a winning edge in close, key races coast to coast. postcardstovoters.org/

  7. Our Thursday, July 13 meeting will be at 4662 S. Clyde Morris Blvd. Doors open 6:30 p.m., and the meeting begins at 7:00. Our invited speaker is Susan McNamee, of the Volusia County Environmental Caucus and Third Act Florida. We will also write postcards to support Sarah Jones's campaign for Port Orange City Council.
