For the record: drop boxes are a secure, efficient way for voters to return their ballots on time & ensure they are counted. Period.

And: the primary reason we need drop boxes is due to the increasing inefficiency & unreliability of @USPS.

Don't like 'em? Fully fund the @USPS. https://t.co/8Ok3VMxgPC

They want each county to be limited to a single dropbox, at the county board of elections. One dropbox for all ~1.1M voters in Philadelphia, one for all 900K voters in Allegheny. https://t.co/yRufITmxCt

Recently I dropped my wife’s primary ballot off in a dropbox in front of the Bergen County, NJ municipal building. There were security officers there. The dropbox was clean, but I didn’t have to touch it because there was a narrow, clearly marked slot to put the ballot in! https://t.co/rrRlHEGQ8X

Send em out by October 20 (the latest but not guaranteed to arrive by Nov 4) OR drop them off in-person at an approved drop box! https://t.co/oskyRBv6CY

THREAD

We believe there is nothing in Ohio statute limiting drop boxes to one per county, so we filed suit in court today to prove it.

But I want to take a moment to highlight the pernicious impact of only one drop box per county for voters who rely on public transit.
