WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A group of about three dozen state and local election officials on Wednesday raised serious concerns about the U.S. Postal Service's ability to deliver millions of ballots for the 2024 presidential election.
The letter, from the National Association of State Election Directors and other state and local election officials, said election officials "have raised serious questions about processing facility operations, lost or delayed election mail, and front-line training deficiencies impacting USPS’s ability to deliver election mail in a timely and accurate manner."
The officials said despite repeated meetings with USPS election staff "we have not seen improvement or concerted efforts to remediate our concerns."
