affects your practical ability to vote
It doesn't affect your ability to vote at all. There are far more severe impairments that go totally unaddressed. Mail theft is extremely common in my area, so much so that everything but junk mail goes to a PO Box.
All voter guides and sample ballots (in all supported languages) are available at the polling place. Polling places rarely change for a given precinct (mine is unchanged in 24+ years), and you can't get into the neighborhood without passing signs for the polling place from 48 hours before the election.
One would have to live a highly insulated life for the only (or even first) tipoff of an upcoming election to be the mailed information booklet. Slate mailers outnumber the official materials probably 40:1.
