1. I don't think the Post Office routinely date stamps mail anymore.

Certainly most of mine arrives without one.

I do wonder how so very many people can fill out a ballot incorrectly. Or how different a mail-in ballot is from the one you get at a polling place.

I do my voting early in person, and that way I know my ballot is valid, because it goes through a machine that at least checks for mistakes. It's probably not actually counted then, I don't know.

I do know Pennsylvania is, somewhat surprisingly, one of the few states that still has only mail-in or Election Day voting.

It seems as though the states that do only mail-in voting, just don't have these problems.
