We're watching - in real time - a massive effort by corrupt individuals to influence the election results.

You all freak out at the prospect of mail in votes being tampered with or something, and you also freak out at the suggestion of the election being postponed.

You also all delude yourselves into thinking both scenarios wouldn’t benefit democrats.

Right, they'd both benefit Democrats, that's why Trump is trying to tamper with mail-in-voting and wanted to postpone the election.  He just wants to help Democrats so much!

Serious question. Are you a bot, or just that deluded?

Just a reminder you are a very racist person, so your opinions on most other subjects should, by association, be taken as presumed foolish.

Yes, despite COVID and Republican sabotage, turnout has been strong all year. I have no doubt that if there is a fairly conducted and fairly counted election, Biden will win. But I also have no doubt that the Republicans will try to stage some kind of "soft coup" to abort the election and declare Trump the winner.

Is there anything we can do to stop this? I know, we can vote early and directly drop off our ballots... but is there nothing we can do about the USPS?

1. Buy a bunch of stamps & use them as much as you can by sending as much of your written correspondence through the USPS as is possible. Don't opt in to paperless online e-statements either: force companies to mail you bills, statements, etc. And use the USPS for shipping packages too, both when you buy something online & ship to somebody else.

2. Call your Congressperson & Senators (even if they're Republicans) & voice your disapproval regarding what's being done to hurt the USPS.

3. Vote straight-ticket for Democratic candidates who support the USPS in the general election.

Of course DeJoy was lying. I think Trump will win solely due to COVID-related suppression.

PSA: if it's an option available to you, don't mail your ballot back. Deliver your ballot in-person instead, because with Trump's sabotage of the USPS, you can't count on a ballot you mail back being delivered in time to be counted.

At this point it seems as if voters need to consider what they will do if they don't even get their ballot in the first place.

Your answer is that we are on the brink of not being a democracy. Not an exaggeration. We'll re-evaluate a week after the election to determine how democratic we still are.

Congress, Governors, Attorneys General, Secretaries of State, Election Boards, Local Law Enforcement, and Democratic lawyers need to be ready for anything that might come from this President during our election process this fall and be ready to fight back with equal force.
