...or at a ballot drop off point.
If it were me, though, I would wait in line inside the PO and hand it to a clerk and wait to see it stamped.

We mailed ours inside the post office. I put it in the slot. I mailed ours on September 29th. I did see that the other mail that I've put in was received but so far according to the registrar they haven't received the ballots. I was told it could take up to 9 days to go through the mail and additional 3 days for processing. I got this directly from the registrar's office.

by the way, I used to work near the post office in Glen Allen where some boxes were broken into. I'm almost positive that's Spanbergers' district

I dropped it on a Sunday evening. The well lit box is under video surveillance. It took three or four days before it showed up on my voter data. This was in Albemarle County. It was much quicker for a friend who dropped it in the outside box at the Charlottesville Registrar.

Have you tried using the track my ballot app linked at https://www.elections.virginia.gov/vote-absentee-by-mail/index.html ?

I am assuming you are in Virginia.

This should be interesting to follow.

repugs are usually too stupid steal something intelligently.

With U.S. mail...as is ballot tampering.

Just....


Thanks for this info, Yonnie.

I missed that.

Well on our way to a corporate supported dictatorship!!

I meant to ask you how you are voting this year? We dropped our mail-in ballots last Tuesday at the Rec Center since they have early voting and the drop box there. So glad we decided to drop off instead of mailing.

Sorry about the delay, dear.

We're going to vote early and in person to make sure our vote is counted and not lost, plus the fact that we can better avoid any line(s).

As you know we live in York Co, not JCC, so instead of having to drive all the way to Yorktown, there's a satellite voting place up at this end of the county. It's located in a shopping center across the way from Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center.

We should've already voted but I've not been feeling too well the last few weeks. NO worries tho, it's a sleep issue.

Hope you guys are well. Greetings to all.

No worries about the delay and I'm sorry you weren't feeling/sleeping well. I know when I don't sleep well it throws everything out of sorts. Hope you are feeling better now.

I didn't realize you were in York Co, my mom is now in York Co as well. In fact, I know the exact satellite voting place you mean, as that's where we dropped her ballot last week. The place isn't very big, and there were 6-7 people in there when we dropped it off and it felt crowded.

We are all well, just waiting to get to the end of this whole mess, though it will take a while to clean up. Keep well, safe, and happy voting -- it was a wonderful feeling!!!

You guys did THE wise thing!

Both the tracking system and the local Board of Elections shows our ballots have arrived.

If I had to do it over, I'd probably do early voting.

I would like to see it go to "In Transit."

Got an email back from the registrar (City of Richmond) (asked "what if it is not received...then what?).

Yes, you can do a provisional ballot up to and on Election Day itself.

If you mailed it at the post office, I am virtually certain that we will receive it

In terms of timeline:

The transits shown on the ballot tracker are not door to door, but at touch points in the main processing centers with estimated delivery dates. You can check for certain receipt through your registration record accessed online at www.elections.virginia.gov. Please allow 9 days transit time through the postal system, then 3 days for us to enter receipt online.

Please let us know if you have further concerns.
