Block the USPS Mail Ballot Verification System Before It Disenfranchises Millions

14 so far! Let’s get to 25 signers!

Block the USPS mail ballot verification system before it steals this election through bureaucratic sabotage. A whistleblower report released by Sen. Richard Blumenthal reveals that USPS leadership is rushing a completely untested system to a September 1 launch date — with IT staff describing the process internally as a "sh*t show" and given just four days of user testing for a system that controls whether ballots get delivered at all. The design is not just flawed — it's a trap. If a single ballot envelope scan doesn't match the portal data, USPS can reject an entire batch, potentially holding back tens of thousands of ballots at once. Requirements were never written down, plans were "constantly changing," and leadership dismissed every concern. Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar said it plainly: the Constitution gives states the authority to run elections, not the federal government and not the Postal Service. This executive overreach must be stopped. Demand an immediate halt to this system's implementation and hold USPS leadership accountable for what they're doing to our elections.
