  6. @alexisbushnell Yay for postal voting (aka #VoteByMail) Thanks for posting a dog photo anyway! ❤️😁

  7. Just voted on funding for transit, funding for library, removing gender specific pronouns from city charter, rights for watersheds and clean water. I could mail the ballot, but I'll walk it over when (?) the sun finally breaks through the clouds.

  8. From the county:

    "Your ballot for the next election has been sent. Look for it soon in your mailbox!"

  9. "California took the lead in filing the lawsuit against Trump and a host of officials in his administration.

    California’s deputy attorney general, Michael Cohen, certified Thursday that lawyers for the complaining states met with lawyers for the Trump administration on April 10 as well as Tuesday but said the two sides couldn’t narrow their differences.

    The case is scheduled for oral arguments on June 2"

  10. "Oregon became the first state in the nation to vote exclusively by mail following a 1998 ballot measure that passed with broad support. That policy has led to the state having among the highest rates of eligible voting-age residents who cast ballots."

    Everyone I know in Oregon - Republican, Democrat, or other - loves our vote by mail system.

    "The latest court filing says the president has no power under the Constitution or federal law to interfere in elections or stop delivery of mail. Under the Constitution, elections are controlled by states, while the U.S. Postal Service is governed by Congress"

  14. NC joins lawsuit over Trump’s mail-in ballot order, calling it an unconstitutional power grab - I live in Oregon where we’ve been using #VoteByMail for over 20 years without a single problem. Almost 0 fraud, and county clerks love it. Plus, it encourages more folks to vote, which evidently scares the hell out of #republicans who clearly hate #democracy and the #constitution. wral.com/news/nccapitol/north-

  15. @Nonilex Our county (in TX) has a process by which we submit an FPCA application, and they send us an email per election which we use to print, vote, and mail back, wherever in the world we happen to be at that moment.

    This EO could throw a wrench in that whole system. Are we going to continue to be allowed to vote by mail? Will they somehow find a way to disallow our ballots without telling us?

    This is bad. Very bad.

  16. Time to get my vote on. Hopefully not the last vote-by-mail, unless the fascists get their way. #Vote #VoteByMail #ElectionsMatter

  17. Don't let -dt- cut you out of voting. If you would like to #VoteByMail in the upcoming 2026 election cycle, you MAY have to submit a new request now with your voting precinct.

    Check it out now.

    I just submitted my new request for a vote by mail ballot. There is a deadline for this, so don't delay.

  22. @cbarbermd

    And if I recall correctly, the most frequent form of #VoteByMail fraud by far was #Republican widowers applying for and mailing in an #AbsenteeBallot for a recently #DeceasedSpouse

    That said, it was extremely rare, but a Republican action non-the-less

  23. There is no evidence that non-citizen voting is a serious problem or that it has any impact on election outcomes.

    "A 2020 analysis by Oregon’s Legislative Fiscal Office found the state’s justice department obtained just 38 criminal convictions for voter fraud across 20 years of votes and nearly 61 million cast ballots. It showed an effective 0.0000006% rate of voter fraud in Oregon elections during the past quarter century."

  24. "Wyden in 1996 was the first federal official to be elected entirely by mail ballots. By the 1998 primary election, Oregon became the first state to have more ballots cast by mail than at polls, and a ballot initiative to move to 100% mail-in voting passed later that year. Oregon became the nation’s first all vote-by-mail state in 2000."

  25. "Oregon’s senior US senator, secretary of state warn of fed voter suppression under SAVE Act"

    opb.org/article/2026/03/14/rea

    "Sen. Ron Wyden and Secretary of State Tobias Read said they would defend mail-in voting and the state’s election integrity."

    "Wyden vowed to fight the bill in the Senate, where it’s expected to get a vote next week, and he and Read vowed to protect Oregon’s decades-old vote-by-mail system."

    As @mattblaze has discussed a few times, there's a lot of daylight between what Trump says he's going to do about elections, and what he actually has the practical ability to achieve, even without legal arguments.

    However, one of his big ones - eliminate mail-in voting, because the "low-information voters" that are the raw #feedstock of #MAGA don't vote by mail - worries me, because of something he might be able to do.

    If Trump ordered a #compliant #USPS - it's officially independent, but it's part of the executive branch and run by a Trump #toady - to simply not deliver voting packages or returned ballots - he could effectively end vote-by-mail without even talking to the states, much less getting them to do it legally. And if he did it late enough, the courts might have trouble acting quickly enough to preserve those potential votes.

    I really hope some of the orgs trying to recover the #US #constitutional order are thinking about this.
