11. And absentee ballots never delivered, and extra rules imposed

Nov 14

FIVE attempts to get 3 ballots for 3 family members..plus three more attempts by our one expat to submit his vote…

Outcome from EIGHT attempts:
-zero absentees counted because 4 out of 5 were never received, and 1 was delivered the night before election but out of state
-one person voted by flying home to vote in person
-one was able to vote on 3rd attempt as an expat

No one should say it’s because dems didn’t show up.

I’ve seen no comparison of unreturned absentees and provisionals, compared to previous elections.
