NEW: Each election year, USPS takes extra steps to ensure ballots sent through the mail arrive at election offices on time. But this year, the agency has pushed back the start date by five days for a set of new measures, leaving postal workers with a truncated timeline to manage mail ballots.

“The shorter timeframe is noteworthy and I don’t know why they’re doing this,” Steve Hutkins, who writes for Save the Post Office, told Democracy Docket.

The Trump administration quietly removed an option on a form overseas voters use to request mail ballots, making it harder for some to vote. In a new lawsuit, Democrats say the GOP's goal is to disenfranchise voters viewed as more inclined to vote Democratic: demdock.com/4djBJR1

NEW: A new USPS policy will eliminate evening mail pickups from select post offices across the country — a change that will eventually slow pick-up and delivery times for around 70% of zip codes in the U.S. We mapped those zip codes to help you figure out whether your mail ballot could be affected👇

Georgia's election board director just asked the Trump admin to seize the state's voting machines. James Mills, an unelected official, sent a letter asking the DOJ to declare Georgia's voting system unlawful and force a system update. This isn't over. Stay close: demdock.com/3T3Owjg
