Regarding Postmarks on Absentee Ballots for the 2020 election
 

ABSOLUTELY NO! A valid postmark must be clearly on the ballot envelope, and it must be no later than November 3, 2020. Without that postmark there is no way to indicate when the ballot was mailed. This will leave it wide open to fraud. ABSOLUTELY NO!
