Security. Speed. Accuracy. Quality.

Election Mail

Election Mailing

Plerus is an expert in Official Election Mail and has the technology to ensure high-integrity, trackable, intelligent mail to support elections. Absentee or Mail-in Ballots, Voter ID Cards, Voter Informational Mailings and more – we can help your office get these items produced and mailed.

Highest Integrity

We leave nothing to chance – our equipment has camera sensors to ensure a match between ballot, return envelope, and voter mailing address – every time.  We have the capability to print unique voter-related certification/oath data on the return envelope as well.

Tracking Services

Track the ballot to the voter and back to your office.  Arm yourself with the best information.

Postage Cost Savings

Tremendous cost savings are possible through presort and bar coding.  The more mail that you send the more the cost-savings add up.  It is not uncommon for our clients to save $10,000+ on postage by working with Plerus in a single election.

Intelligent Mail Barcode (IMb)

Barcoding enables USPS to process the mail quickly and accurately.  We don’t recommend clients send ballots without IMbs, as the likelihood of USPS processing errors on unbarcoded mail are high.

Logistics

We can deliver the mail/absentee ballots to a local USPS Sectional Center Facility (Processing & Distribution Center) on your behalf.  Or we can mail out of our region which is centrally located in the US.
