If you get a USPS 'request a ballot' postcard this weekend, here's what you should know

Pierce County residents can expect a postcard from the U.S. Postal Service this weekend that might be confusing.

The postcard, which is part of a national campaign by USPS, encourages voters to request their mail-in ballots at least 15 days prior to election day on Nov. 3.

This does not apply to Washington state, said Pierce County Auditor Julie Anderson.

In Washington State, which has been a vote-by-mail state since 2011, voters do not need to call to request their ballots. If they are registered to vote, one will automatically be sent to them.

Someone should be fired. The canned self-aggrandizing post card has nothing whatsoever to do with WA state (as CO said it didn't for them either). Trying to mislead the public and interfere with local election procedures should be a felony criminal offense.
