New: After concluding that USPS policy changes that led to mail delays are likely to burden voting rights (see: https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_public_doc?2020cv2405-32),">https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/s... a DC federal judge has entered a comprehensive order that requires several things of USPS going forward. Here are highlights:
1) USPS has to implement what are referred to as "extraordinary measures" to improve delivery times for ballots mailed at postal facilities in the following places:
2) USPS has to file a daily update with the court on locations where delivery service for ballots falls below a certain threshold, and explain why that& #39;s happening and what USPS is doing to address it
3) USPS also has to provide the court every day with data sets about service performance as it relates to the delivery of mail ballots
