Postal Service urges voters to mail ballots early

Millions of ballots are expected to be mailed during the election season this fall, and the U.S. Postal Service urges voters to mail them early.

Voters are asked to send completed absentee ballots back at least one week in advance of their state deadlines to ensure the safe, timely delivery of their vote, a spokesman said in a news release.

“The U.S. Mail serves as a secure, efficient and effective means for citizens to participate in the electoral process,” said Deputy Postmaster General Ronald Stroman. “Having worked closely with state election officials throughout the last year, the Postal Service is fully prepared to deliver election and political mail in a timely manner.”
