On Friday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said that Americans planning to vote by mail in the November election should do so early, claiming that the Trump administration will slow postal deliveries ahead of Election Day. While left-leaning articles highlight that the U.S. Postal Service recently detailed letters to 46 states and D.C. warning it can’t guarantee all ballots cast by mail for November will arrive in time, right-leaning articles highlight New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said the general election would be done mostly by mail.
A left-leaning article by The Washington Post highlights that the U.S. Postal Service recently detailed letters to 46 states and D.C. warning that it can’t guarantee that all ballots cast by mail for the November election will arrive in time to be counted. Some states anticipate that there will be 10 times the normal volume of election mail, and six states and D.C. received warnings that ballots could be delayed for a narrow set of voters.
A centrist article by Reuters reports that Pelosi spoke a day after President Trump said he opposed any money in new coronavirus relief legislation to help the U.S. Postal Service handle mail-in ballots for the November 3rd elections. In an interview with MSNBC, Pelosi said “They’re going to do everything they can to slow the mail.”
A right-leaning article by Breitbart highlights that New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said the general election would be done mostly by mail, following the model used during the state’s July primary. However, for November there will be more secure drop boxes, as well as physical, in-voting capacity.
