In 2024, a new law opened up the postal market to private competition and took away its exemption from the country's 25% rate of VAT, so the price of a PostNord stamp jumped to 29 Danish krone ($4.55; £3.35) per letter.
"That made volumes] drop even further faster,"

They've been privatizing the post in my country too. Competition sprung up and they only want to do the most profitable tasks of course, like package delivery and newspapers. The postal service is of course still stuck with letters. But they seem to have an advantage with package returns with their offices everywhere.

Hah. Sold the post office to a private company.
Yall vote in the mail? Uhh ohhhhh
No mail-in voting in Denmark. There's early in-person voting at city hall, and in larger cities, some other municipal locations like libraries, and in-person voting on election day at schools or sports halls
We don't. We do however have polling stations literally everywhere, and the longest wait I've ever had is 10 minutes. Usually I just stroll right in and am out of the building within a minute or 2.
Also as someone else commented, early voting in a lot of locations around the cities.
I’ll never understand the idea of a specific voting day, which is why I like mail-in. How early are you allowed to vote?
