Who is checking the USPS? Sounds like it could be pretty easy to just hang on to ballots from certain blue districts and postmark them late.
https://twitter.com/defeat_trump2/status/1323082023775318016?s=21If that's true then it could be an advantage for Democrats. It should be easy to prove that people are getting late postmarks. From there you just go to court and show that the USPS was committing fraud and ALL votes should count regardless of postmark date. That means even votes that are sent after election day would be eligible for counting.
But I have my doubts about this postmark scheme being true.
IMO the postmark scheme is one simple thing they can easily do and get away with. I don't think it's easy to prove at all. Say postal offices across the country are simply holding mailed ballots in the back. There are no markings to prove that the USPS got a hold of them on time but simply didn't postmark and process. Dems have to catch wind of this quickly enough (within days) after Tuesday and organized some corroborating details to take up the complaint with authorities and state election boards. It's a huge messy undertaking and the GOP can just try to run out the clock. They can say that yes it was known that the USPS would experience delays. They can blame huge mail-in voting volumes for the issue. I think it's very hard to prove it is deliberate. As long as the GOP can get some kind of lead for trump (fraudulently if needed) the chances that it will be investigated and reversed in time are very little. And as you know, once trump is deemed the winner it's game over on going after anyone, trump will pardon everybody.
