WASHINGTON, Feb. 14 (UPI) -- A strong majority of Americans favor dropping Saturday residential mail delivery, a Gallup poll indicates.
The poll released Wednesday found 63 percent of those surveyed said they favor eliminating residential delivery on Saturdays, a move the money-losing U.S. Postal Service has in the works for August to save $2 billion a year. The poll also found 67 percent are okay with reducing the number of days their local post office is open and 41 percent say stamp prices should go up.
