Post

Three days after the August primary, election workers in one Washington county went to check for late mail-in ballots. They expected no more than a few dozen. Instead, there were more than 500 — each a vote that wouldn’t count.

The U.S. Postal Service has reduced mail pickup at some local facilities, which could affect when your ballot is postmarked. To find out whether your ZIP code is affected, use our lookup tool: www.propublica.org/article/mail...

Texas doesn’t have drop boxes. Very few are eligible to vote by mail. Vote in person.

My husband and I are some of the very few Texans eligible to vote by mail. I spent almost $70 to mail ours Priority Express. I put them directly into the hands of a worker at the post office counter. They arrived at county clerk the next day and have been recorded. Voting in Texas sucks.

Thank you for voting! I’m sorry it was an expensive pain in the ass (the description of why we all need to vote!)

I’m one of those “crawl over broken glass to vote Democratic“ people, so I was going to do anything to make sure our votes counted. 💙 We have a house outside our home county and have to spend a lot of time there for a bunch of reasons, so voting gets complicated. Texas GOP wants to make it hard. 🤬

From what is circulated outside of Texas about laws and politicians and courts IN Texas (and the large number of magas) I wonder why anyone would want to reside there. You are indeed intrepid. Thank you again for your diligence in voting. We all need to be that strong in our civic duty to vote.
