I usually mail my ballot, but this year I'll drop it off at the official ballot box at city hall. And I'll confirm online that they received my ballot.

- cactus2093 6y agoWhy? Also, reminder that you can track your ballot online and make sure that it is received and counted, whether you mail it or drop it off.
- foogazi 6y agoWhy not?
- Johnny555 6y agoBecause even if the post office wasn't deliberately crippled by management (in my area, 40% of sorting machines were disabled in August, I don't know how many were able to be put back into service), this election will likely have much higher than normal mail-in ballet counts, so by delivering mine by hand, that's one less piece of election mail the USPS needs to handle. Oh, and though this is probably obvious, I'm dropping at the box at City Hall, because I know that one's legit.
- iJohnDoe 6y agoYou’re assuming that your city hall is even remotely competent. Most city halls are no better than the Parks and Recreations TV show. Don’t believe me? Go to your next city hall meeting.
