Democrats nationwide are moving away from mailing ballots and toward in-person voting and drop boxes. In Georgia, requests for mail ballots are down 40 percent, while in-person early voting is “through the roof,” according to the leading authority on early voting data. https://wapo.st/4sllbhL

Give every US Citizen a free passport

No we're not

Couple the threats with the stolen ballot drop boxes.

Some of that wariness has a paper trail. In 2020 a megadonor with no Postal Service experience became Postmaster General; overtime cuts and hundreds of decommissioned sorting machines followed as mail voting surged. In most states a late ballot simply isn't counted.

Are there indications of why voters are shifting from mail ballots to in-person and drop box voting in these areas?

So sad that we have to do this.

This bugs the hell out of me. Voting by mail is perfectly safe. Some of the people who decide to vote in person will end up not doing it for any number of reasons. And, sadly, Democrats have contributed to the mail-in ballot hysteria.

It's not hysteria when the criminal president is actively sabotaging the USPS specifically to disrupt mail-in voting.

He's actively trying, and failing. What he's suffering at is scaring people. And the Democrats are helping him.

We should be wary of what the administration is doing to the mail system, but Dems should not rule out mail in voting. Vote by any means. Trump telling his voters not to vote by mail contributed to his loss in 2020. However, you can vote, VOTE. MAGA must be defeated.
