Postal Service misses court-ordered deadline for unsent mail ballots

The U.S. Postal Service failed to meet a court-imposed deadline Tuesday afternoon for the urgent processing of some 300,000 mail ballots that had not been delivered to election offices as deadlines neared.

U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who set the deadline, said it appeared the Postal Service had failed to comply with his order, and told the organization to be prepared to discuss the matter at a noon hearing on Wednesday.
