Vice President Harris will vote by mail ahead of Election Day as a way to “model” the different modes of voting for Americans, the campaign told reporters Saturday. The team, however, didn’t provide an update on whether Harris had already sent her ballot. The vice president is from California, but she has not traveled back to the state recently. Instead, she has prioritized her travel on the swing states, as the White House race remains close with less than a week left until the election. “She wants to model behavior for other voters to continue to take advantage of the...

DENVER — The Trump-Vance campaign has sent a letter to Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold demanding that the processing of many mail-in ballots in the state be temporarily halted.

BOMBSHELL - the United States Postal Service recently changed the delivery method of absentee mail-in ballots! They are hiding the evidence of absentee mail-in ballot fraud - by not allowing the evidence to be created in the first place. Here's how and what changed: You can't get the absentee mail-in vote ballot images from the USPS because they are not sending them to the central sorting facilities!

Some 200,000 mail carriers have reached a tentative contract deal with the U.S. Postal Service that includes backdated pay raises and a promise to provide workers with air-conditioned trucks. The new agreement, which still needs to be ratified by union members, runs through November 2026. Letter carriers have been working without a new contract since their old one expired in May 2023.

The city is investigating but does not yet know where the ballots went. “Voters were calling, saying, ‘Hey, we didn’t receive our ballots,’” Hondorp said. “There’s a tray of ballots that were set to be mailed out.

So, Microsoft has been threatening me all year that they're going to force everyone to use "Outlook" on their computers, getting rid of "Mail". I use Outlook on my computer for a 'side hustle' business, and do not want to intermingle my email accounts on one application - and "Mail" does everything I need for my Yahoo/Gmail/etc. accounts. I've tried looking online for some, but can't really find anything that fits the job like the simple, basic "Mail". So, reaching out to the technocrati here at FreeP to see what y'all use for e-mail on a Windows laptop?
