Thousands of mail ballots may be lost, Pittsburgh-area official says

Thousands of mail ballots may be lost, Pittsburgh-area official says. Another case of voting-by-mail-fraud is safe.

A Pennsylvania county official warned Wednesday that potentially thousands of ballots mailed to voters have gone missing, with officials now rushing to send out new ones.

Leslie Osche, chair of the Butler County board of commissioners, told local CBS affiliate KDKA that officials have mailed new ballots, overnighted ballots to people residing out of state such as college students, and even had sheriff’s deputies hand-deliver ballots.

Osche said it was unclear how many ballots have apparently gone missing, but estimated — based on the number of calls and emails that have flooded local offices — that it could well be in the thousands.

  • I tried to have a discussion with a liberal friend last week about the difference between mail-in voting and absentee voting. It was like talking to a brick wall. CNN and MSNBC watchers are like brainwashed Borg people, they cannot entertain a new thought. I finally gave him my favorite line about the difference between stupidity and adamant, willful ignorance; how one is a handicap while the other is a sin. Fortunately for our friendship the line went right over his head... which wasn't hard given that his head is so firmly lodged in his own ass.
