In my area they have released a list of post offices that are up for “possible” closure. They all appear to be in heavily Democrat populated areas sure to generate large volumes of complaints to Washington.

I live in Boone County WV. Of the 15 post offices, eight and slated for closure. Theyre mostly in areas where seniors who dont even know what the internet is, much less having paid their bills on line.

The Govt is going deliberately closed mouth as to what post offices for sure will be closed and when it will happen. I was told the other offices MIGHT be closing in the neight county..or may nor. An yes, even for this county, who alays go for pubblies in the past elections, ar

A project i worked on years ago revealed the need to close 28,000 post offices. They are closing only 3,000 or so. Ain't no thang. This will generate few real complaints.

Worked on another project to review about 20 years of newspaper articles about post office closures. I found out that almost all the complaints made by the general public concerned a single item ~ the need to change their address as a consequence of the change.

They really weren't concerned with service ~ mostly because when you get your delivery from a small post office it arrives a day or two later than for other people.

That problem ~ the address change ~ was FIXED some time back with implementation of the 9 digit ZIP Code.
