Here is the general voter suppression blog.

This blog will try to list some of the more blatant voter suppression efforts attempted in Minnesota by the criminal, racist, unpatriotic Republican party.

Democracy hating GOP criminals (DeJoy and others) crippled the USPS system to steal the election by suppressing the votes

This is true of all swing states where they are facing major delays in returning ballots on time, USPS data shows.

Maddow on on-time mail percentages in key battlegrounds:

Philadelphia: 43%
Detroit: 53%
Northern Ohio: 56%
South Florida: 63%

Trump and DeJoy have throttled the US mail in key Democratic strongholds. It is now too late to trust the mail in states that require ballots by Nov. 3.

America.

Don't accept this.

This was Trump and DeJoy's plan all along. https://t.co/3v1TOnx3Cp

Given Supreme Court rulings on mail ballots and Trump's effort to undermine the Postal Service, I strongly suggest that you now vote in person - try early voting or find a drop box. Protect your health but don’t let anyone deprive you of your most precious right. Have a plan.
