(11,513 posts)Thankfully a couple of things happened to overcome it. First, there was sufficient daylight shed on DeJoy's stunt ahead of time to ensure that most mail-in ballots arrived on time. Unfortunately the Postal Service still needs to be put back together. While a few of the sorting machines DeJoy had dictated be destroyed managed to be put back in service, many didn't.
Secondly, we had a large enough turnout to overcome GOPer efforts of voter suppression.

Look...
A few years ago we said we couldn't wait for 2020.
When 2020 got here, we said we couldn't wait for November 3rd.
Now that Nov 3rd's in the rear view mirror, we're waiting for Jan 20th 2021.
Be patient and listen to Joe - - we'll get through this together!!
Love you all - - hang in there!
Lock him up.
