The picture that the Oregonian ran with this article is of the characteristic red-and-white outgoing ballot envelopes used in Oregon; I think that we all are thinking not just of mail but of ballots when reading this news.
Don't tell the fascists, but Oregonians have a system of ballot dropoff locations at libraries and other popular locations. [0] contains a listing for Multnomah County (Portland), and there's a bunch of locations for Lane County (Eugene) as well, although they don't have an official website listing. Combined with the generous voting window of several weeks, we should have no problem voting even if we can't use USPS blue boxes for dropoff.
