TOPEKA, Kan. — Kansas Secretary of State Scott Schwab is “disappointed” by postal service response to concerns with mail-in ballots.
“I am in receipt of a letter from the USPS dated September 13, 2024 (and attached), which purports to be responsive to the concerns my office has raised to you regarding the USPS’s failure to postmark election ballots and failure to deliver those ballots timely” Schwab wrote to in the letter to Postmaster General and Chief Executive Officer Louis DeJoy. “Both actions disenfranchised Kansas voters during the state’s August primary election, and I am seeking your assurance this will not occur in the November 5 general election. To date, I am disappointed in the USPS’s response.”
Schwab said in his letter he was “deeply troubled” the USPS is unaware of the issues I raised regarding late delivery of mail.”
