In South Florida, the USPS failed to deliver ~27 percent of the mail ballots.

South Florida includes Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, the largest Democratic stronghold in the state. President Donald Trump is projected to carry Florida by more than 3 percent, due in large part to an apparent giant drop in Democrats margin in the area.
This data comes after U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan ordered USPS to inspect its facilities for lost mail-in ballots and deliver them on time. USPS refused to comply with the order, saying that it was not practical to do so. Sullivan is scheduled to hold a hearing later today about USPS non-compliance with his directive.

(11,636 posts)We are in the midst of a pandemic and so many people opted to mail votes all over the country rather than put themselves in danger. Each ballot was cast in good faith.

(473 posts)We should have masked up and voted in person. We keep falling into traps set by republicans. They sabotaged the post office and stole Florida from us.

They probably had even more nefarious, well designed plans for rigging in person voting that were thwarted by the sudden shift to mail in voting.
We need to throw DeJoy out. He alone was the issue here.
