A USPS whistleblower says a new digital plan could break the midterms

Original version ·

Because apparently, sending paper letters across the country in 2024 is still a high-stakes thriller.

Someone on the inside at the USPS just dropped a warning that a new digital system for processing mail-in ballots is being rushed through. The concern isn't just bureaucratic laziness—it's the potential to completely derail the midterms if this thing goes live before the courts can even blink.

The plan is tied to Donald Trump and his ongoing crusade to restrict mail-in voting. Rather than just collecting letters, the agency is scrambling to build an online infrastructure that sounds like it was written in a script for a disaster movie. If the tech glitches, the fallout happens on election night.

Bureaucracy moves at the speed of a snail, but apparently, it can hit light speed when there is a political deadline to meet.
