'They're holding the mail hostage': Town in vote-by-mail Utah lost its only post office
ST. GEORGE, UTAH – In the final month before the 2020 U.S. general election, the 400-or-so residents of a Utah town just outside Capitol Reef National Park are preparing to mail their ballots in, like so many others across the country.
The only problem?
They don't have a post office.
On New Year's Eve last year, the Torrey Post Office and former town hub shut its doors as the private owners couldn't renegotiate their contract with the United States Postal Service, due to a multitude of factors, but mostly, debt.
No post office means no home delivery, no mail pick up, no place to buy stamps and no place to send mail.

So much for the efficiency of the private sector.
