👀 USPS has been TOO quiet...

The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is violating open records laws by refusing to provide documents on its plan to screen mail ballots as part of President Donald Trump’s anti-voting executive order, a nonpartisan government watchdog alleged in a new lawsuit.

The effort was spurred by a recent bombshell whistleblower report that described the agency’s “haphazard” process for developing the “Federal Mail Ballot Portal.”

Despite the Supreme Court putting the plan on hold for the midterm elections, the watchdog, American Oversight, said the mail agency’s blueprint for implementing the system in future elections remains “uncertain and opaque.”

That leaves “significant questions and concerns as to whether election officials and the federal government (including USPS, which has not historically played a direct role in election administration) will be able to ensure that eligible voters seeking to vote by mail or absentee will be able to rely on the Postal Service to deliver their ballots,” the group wrote in the lawsuit.

The anonymous whistleblower told Congress that the software’s development was rushed and done in secret, in defiance of court orders. The whistleblower also warned that a single scanning error among tens of thousands of ballot envelopes could prevent the entire batch from reaching voters.

American Oversight filed four Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests for documents that had the potential to shed light on the whistleblower’s claims, including communications by top USPS officials on the portal’s development and protocols for curing potential ballot issues.

With no response from USPS, the group said it’s asking the courts to step in and force the agency’s hand.
