Colorado Is The Test Run For Democrats’ Vote-By-Mail Blame Game
Democrats are setting up Louis DeJoy and the U.S. Postal Service to be the ‘fall guy’ for 2020 vote-by-mail elections, ignoring much-needed USPS reforms.

Democrats have a new prime target in their political sights: U.S. Postal Service and Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. On Friday, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold sued USPS and DeJoy for a supposed “attempt at voter suppression that violates the United States Constitution and federal statutes and must be stopped immediately.†This time, the “voter suppression†and “constitutional violation†came in the form of a postcard sent to voters with incomplete information about vote-by-mail.
Really? One deficient informational postcard is powerful enough to commandeer Colorado’s elections authority and suppress the right to vote?
In truth, Democrats are again using USPS to attack President Trump, openly accusing him of conspiring with DeJoy to disrupt USPS and interfere in vote-by-mail elections. Democrats insist on using USPS as a scapegoat when — not if — vote-by-mail issues arise in untested states. The left may be escalating the blame-game, but this scapegoating is nothing new.
Problems with the Post Office, a quasi-government agency, go back decades. Democrats, however, are only apt to highlight USPS flaws when it suits their political narrative; otherwise, they ignore them. It’s in the left’s handbook, and it’s ripped from my home state of Colorado.
