With everything coming out about how mail in ballots are being delayed and otherwise messed with and who knows what else is in store, what is the value of ensuring your vote gets counted relative to your time dropping it off personally?

In my state all voting is by mail. The postage is pre paid but you can drop off your ballot if you wish.

I just prefer to be vote by mail so I can fill it out at home without being rushed.
