That's why I had asked earlier if you were talking about actually mailing the ballot or dropping it off yourself. It's the USPS delivery (and your particular state's deadline) that's a potential problem now. Dropping it off in person is absolutely an option.

I meant to mention it in my last post, but those news articles that announced that it was now too late to mail your ballot also provided alternative options.
