Questionable Voting Ballots received in the Mail? What to do.

People are getting their primary voting ballots now by mail, and I have two reports already of anomalies.

 

One got a ballot that was "cut" to obliterate the name of a candidate, and another got a second ballot at their home address for someone who never lived there.

 

In the 2016 elections (when Trump won), there were several major ballot screwups in Lake County, FL, and Republicans notified the Republican HQ in Tavares and they notified the press and the Supervisor of Elections couldn't bury the problems (that was before Alan Hays) and had to fix them.

 

Here is what to do about it if it happens to you.

 

1. Make a scanned pdf or digital photo of both sides.

 

2. Call your local County Supt. of Elections, such as Alan Hays in Lake County, and tell them you have a suspicious ballot and want it investigated, and once you talk to a manager, send it to them, asking for a response.

 

3. ALSO, contact your local County Republican HQ and tell them the same thing and send them an email with the evidence.

 

4. AND, if you are in Lake County, send it to me also at [email protected].

 

Let's not see something and say nothing.  If you see duplicate ballots, defaced ballots, or any questionable action about ballots, take action.  Notify your local Republican office, plus the County Elections Supervisor, plus me.   Request the Supervisor of elections respond with what they found and did to fix the problem.  If it sounds hoky, notify the Republicans, me and the press.  

 

We expect there to be efforts to take ballots of ill people in retirement homes and fill them in, so if you are in a position to see that, let us know. Watch for ballot harvesting where ballots are just removed from mailboxes for submission later.
