U.S. Representative Donna Shalala (FL-27) issued the following statement in response to reporting yesterday that mail-in ballots were piling up at the Princeton post office in southern Miami-Dade County:
“Over the past few weeks, my office has been in regular communication with the Miami-Dade County Postmaster’s office to voice concerns about the timely delivery of vote-by-mail ballots. I have received assurances from the Postmaster that USPS is running extra sorting shifts, expediting election mail, and scheduling extra pickups leading up to election day.
“If voters haven’t yet returned their mail-in ballot, they should deposit it in a drop box at an early voting location, at one of the Miami-Dade Supervisor of Elections (SOE) offices, or at one of the four additional drop-off sites that the SOE has set up. If they’ve already voted by mail, they should check the SOE’s website to make sure their ballot has been received and counted. If they cannot confirm that their ballot was received, voters can vote in person at an early voting site or at their assigned precinct on Election Day.”
