Why Should the US Postal Service Need More $$$ to Handle a Brief & Modest Bump In Mail Volume?

Factoid #1: The US Postal Service currently processes and delivers, on average, 472.1 million mail pieces each day.

Factoid #2: Roughly 138 million Americans voted in the last Presidential election (2016).

Let's assume 140 million people vote in this year's Presidential election. And let's assume (unrealistically for illustrative purposes) every one of them votes by mail. Then let's assume (again unrealistically for illustrative purposes) they all mail in their ballots on the same day. What would happen?

Well, do the fucking math. It would merely produce a one-day, 30% spike in the average volume of mail currently handled by the Postal Service. You know, something akin to what the USPS sees each year during the peak holiday season.

Of course, the actual blip will be substantially lower, because 1) not everyone is going to vote by mail and 2) the ballots will trickle in over several weeks rather than on a single day.

Which brings me back to my question - Can someone please explain to me why the dim-retards say they need an extra $25 fucking billion to handle this?

When you get back more ballots than you have voting age population you know you have a problem.

I don't understand why going to the polls is a big deal. They were flipping tf out about this in March. If we can pack into a Walmart or McDonalds, or riot in thousands in the streets, why is it a big deal to go to the polls?

It is quite an admission on the part of the CommieSocialistLiberals that they cannot win the election in the Fall without stuffing fake votes into the mix .... by bogus mail-in ballots!!!! Their "strategy" ...

... put up two LoonaTicks for Potus and VP who can't find their asses with both hands .... and then orchestrate mass mailing of fraudulent ballots to enhance their inability to muster sufficient winning votes!

Then they have to bribe the post office to make sure legitimate ballots are not processed while assuring all the fake ones are counted!!!!

The fake ballots will be processed in those areas where the prosecutors will not indict anyone caught counterfeiting votes.

And just to assure success .... Antifa palefaces will be patrolling in the vicinity of the polls to beat the crap out of any White people who show up to place their ballot in person.
just like other departments of government

the postal service union supports dimocrats

where one party desires limitations on the size of government and, therefore, the number of employees, there is a natural bias in government service in the favor of dimocrats

ala lois lerner

and, if that's not proof enough, keep in mind, john kasich's dad was a mailman

I would be OK with the Post Office getting more money if they spend it on new vehicles - made in America.

New uniforms - made in America.

New equipment - made in America.

kasich as the ohio governor didn't go to the 2016 rep convention even thought it was held in the state of which he was governor, he was so mad

that burned the mailman's son to no end and its still burning him up
