IIRC, Oregon requires postal ballots to be received by election day. Also IIRC, Washington's (State) rule is received by certification, which is 21 (?) days after election day. Changing to the Oregon rule is floated most every legislative session. We've successfully beaten it back. But one thing I learned as an election integrity activist is the Powers That Be will keep trying until they succeed. FURTHER: Back in the day, the Undeliverable As Addressed (UAA) rate was %1 for First Class mail. Meaning %1 of postal ballots were not received by voters. And %1 of cast postal ballots never got back to central count. In my county, that's over 10,000 ballots lost in a general election. Anybody worried about USPS's performance should probably be doing their own measuring of UAA and other metrics. Any way. I'm VERY CONCERNED about the USPS monkeying with stuff that ain't broke. Ensuring postal balloting works as expected takes A LOT of effort.
