During a recent discussion, Secretary of State Scott Schwab highlighted concerns regarding the handling of official ballots by postal employees. Schwab suggested that issues such as poor training, lack of funding, laziness, and a failure to prioritize ballot delivery may contribute to the problem. He emphasized that while the post office often offers excuses, they fall short when it comes to ensuring timely ballot delivery and providing solutions for improvement.
Addressing the issue of postmarks on ballots, Schwab expressed uncertainty about whether postal employees may overlook the requirement for official ballots. He noted that his efforts to address these concerns with the postmaster general have yet to yield a response.
