The article describes unsorted mail which will require additional workers and max hours to process all the mail by election day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Princeton is mostly black and Hispanic.  <a href=\"https:\/\/worldpopulationreview.com\/us-cities\/princeton-fl-population\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/worldpopulationreview.com\/us-cities\/princeton-fl-population<\/a>.  Historically this demographic has voted heavily Democratic.  These delays are the predicted result of the planned downsizing of the USPS by the Trump administration.  The presence of mail-in-ballots in this delayed mail, puts valid votes at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A valid question is are there other places where this is a problem?  How wide spread is it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump says he will only lose the election if there is wide spread fraud.  The truth is that Trump will only win if his voter suppression efforts are successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is the vote suppressed?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Historically the vote is suppressed through a combination of means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Limiting polling stations in targeted locations.  Locations which are unfavorable to those attempting to suppress the vote.  In Louisville, KY recent primary elections there was only 1 open polling location for the entire city.<\/li><li>Increased police patrols in and around the polling centers discourages minority voters.  This works as a direct result of systemic racist polices in many of our law enforcement community.<\/li><li>This year Donald Trump encourages armed supporters to watch Polling places.  Included in these &#8220;poll watchers&#8221; are members of white supremist groups.  Even in the westerns, citizens turned in their fire arms before town meetings. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trump wishes to suppress the vote.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is fraud; which is encouraged by Donald Trump&#8217;s rhetoric.  It is occurring in an unprecedented number of locations and ways.  He went as far as to suggest that his supporters test the system and try to vote twice in North Carolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We must elect Joe Biden<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">and put an end to this fraud.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mail-in-Ballots Princeton, FL The following article describes problems in the post office of Princeton, FL. https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/postal-officials-probe-claims-mail-ballots-backlog-florida-county-dems-worry-low-voter-turnout-1543777.
