Yes and yes. Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of the night nor Election Day can stop the post office. Election Day isn't observed as a federal holiday, so post offices will be open and mail will be delivered.

If you do encounter an issue at the polls -- such as a poll worker being unable to find your name or being told you need to vote elsewhere and you can't -- there are ways to get help.

Whether you've already voted, plan to drop your ballot in the mail, or simply have postal business to take care of, you may be wondering if the post office is open on Election Day this year. You also may also be curious if there will be mail delivery on Nov.
