And received by noon on Friday, November 6. That only leaves 2 1/2 days for the mail to be delivered if one was to mail their ballot on Election Day.

The article linked below is from last week, so the deadline for asking for mail in ballots has already passed (ie it’s not this Friday).

With the gutting of the post office, I would encourage people planning to mail in their ballots to do so as soon as possible and not wait until next week. A better option, if possible, would be to vote in person this week, and you can feed your ballot into the machine.
