The Mail-In Ballot Costume features a white pull-on tube dress with postal detailing, two strategically placed "I Voted" bust stickers, "Official Ballot Enclosed" and "First Class Mail" printed with a red stripe. In an attempt to make the costume more akin to the actual ballots, the dress features a barcode and a square box that reads "No Postage Necessary."

Fans can get their hands on this political costume online for $29.95 in sizes small, medium, and large.
