The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will foot the postage bill for mail-in-ballots in November’s general election, officials announced Friday.

Different classes of mail, such as Presort First Class, and Presort Standard is cheaper than regular First Class.

To get those rates, it has to be a bulk mailing.

The cheapest one, Presort Standard is “one way” mail. If the addressee has moved the pieces get tossed for recycling. If it is endorsed “Address Service Requested”, it costs the sender $.95 to get a photocopy of the customer’s new address, and the the piece gets tossed.

theyvwill also mail thrm out pre-filled, so all you have to do is scrawl an unreadable signature, throw it back in the mail, and another democrat vote is cast.

im surpimrised they dont just skip the whole mail thing, and simple run the ballot presses and feed the output into the machines. who needs fake voters?

“which could total several million dollars to cover 55 cents per ballot, NBC 10 Philadelphia reported.”

Except the postage on most ballots is 75 cents or more.
