Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum to Open Voting by Mail Exhibition

National Postal Museum

Voting by mail did not start during the Covid-19 pandemic. It began in various forms during the Civil War when soldiers could not get home to vote and it picked up steam again during World War II for the same reason. Mail has been and continues to be a method for providing citizens with access to election information and materials. Today, every state has some form of voting by mail. The National Postal Museum’s exhibition “Voting by Mail: Civil War to Covid-19” explores the significant role of voting by mail in America’s democracy. Over time, legislation for both military and civilian voting using the mail has been shaped by events and politics with provisions added, removed and amended. On view Saturday, Aug. 24, through Feb. 23, 2025, “Voting by Mail” invites visitors to explore the changing logistical and political reasons for the various ways mail has been part of the election process, and how it continues to define where, when and how Americans vote in elections. Early methods for absentee voting that used the mail enabled military members to participate in elections when wartime deployments took them away from their polling precincts. The Civil War and World War II caused many states to temporarily establish or expand absentee voting for significant numbers of voters in the military. Allowances for civilians voting absentee grew in the early 20th century and in 1901 Kansas became the first state to permit voting by mail but limited this to railroad employees traveling for work. Since the 1980s, in addition to in-person voting, some jurisdictions, including eight states and the District of Columbia, have instituted all-mail voting with the automatic distribution of ballots to registered voters. The public health emergency of the Covid-19 pandemic brought about temporary procedures, new laws and debates over using the mail for voting. Objects on display focus on the early history of voting by mail in the U.S. and ways the mail is used in modern elections. A Civil War envelope for mailing soldiers’ votes on a tally sheet enabled deployed military service members to participate in the Ohio state election of 1864. World War II absentee voting materials developed for U.S. Armed Forces, including the design of a blank ballot allowed the government to distribute them before specific candidate names became available, thus accommodating weeks-long mailing time for U.S. forces overseas. Examples of modern election mail including an absentee ballot, an envelope for a mail-in ballot, an official election information guide, and notices announcing elections. “We are excited to present the role of mail in U.S. elections for government representatives serving the American public,” said Elliot Gruber, director of the museum. “The history of mail as an official conduit of election information and election voting materials has long been part of our nation’s history.” The exhibition is supported by public and exhibition programming, as well as educational resources for teachers. A special website makes available the stories, themes and historical artifacts presented in the exhibition. About the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum The National Postal Museum is devoted to presenting the colorful and engaging history of the nation's mail service and showcasing one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of stamps and philatelic material in the world. It is located at 2 Massachusetts Ave. N.E., Washington, D.C., across from Union Station. The museum is currently open Friday through Tuesday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. For more information about the Smithsonian, call (202) 633-1000.

Text Patents a Method for Combining Asynchronous and Real-Time Communication

Text, Inc.

Text, a global leader in B2B text communication solutions, has secured its fifth patent in the United States. The patented "system and method" enables the seamless integration of asynchronous communication channels with real-time communication within a single platform. "Customers want to communicate with companies in various ways. Sometimes, an email or another method that allows the recipient to respond later is best, which is asynchronous communication. However, sometimes rapid, direct, real-time interaction is necessary. Our technology enables seamless integration of these communication types, providing real benefits for our clients: increased user satisfaction, faster issue resolution, and better management of existing information, " explains Konrad Kruk, Head of Widget and the patent's author. The patent granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) describes a system and method that integrates asynchronous messaging with real-time communication, allowing smooth transitions between different communication modes within a single platform. The invention enables users to switch between messages (such as emails or SMS) and real-time interactions (such as voice or video calls) without leaving the communication platform or starting a new session. "This is our fifth patent, confirming our position as one of the technological innovators in the industry. We are especially proud because the secured solution introduces significant improvements in online communication, ensuring companies maintain uninterrupted and consistent communication with customers across various industries, " said Katarzyna Rogowska, head of Text's legal department. The key benefits of the newly patented solution for Text's clients and end-users include: - Improved communication efficiency: Combining asynchronous messaging with real-time communication on one platform reduces the need to switch between different communication tools, saving time and increasing productivity. - Enhanced user experience: Internet users communicating with companies via solutions like LiveChat can enjoy seamless communication, effortlessly transitioning between messaging and real-time conversations. This particularly benefits customer service, remote work, and collaborative projects. - Increased accessibility: The unified interface makes managing communications easier, ensuring that important messages and real-time interactions are never missed. This is particularly useful in environments where timely communication is critical. - Easier and more efficient record-keeping: The synchronization feature ensures that all communications are recorded, providing a reliable record of interactions. This can be crucial for legal, compliance, and reference purposes. - Scalability and flexibility: The system can be scaled to suit different organizational sizes and integrated with other systems, making it a flexible solution for various industries and applications. In summary, the invention registered by the USPTO enhances communication by combining the advantages of asynchronous messaging and real-time communication in one coherent system, offering increased efficiency, user experience, and accessibility for individuals and organizations.
