9 military mail in ballots thrown in dumpster in PA
First, up, the #1 story on the list is dated from July. It's about a local government vote, and the town clerk lost a box of 200 mail-in ballots in a shed, and later they found it. Nothing to do with federal politics.
The second story is from August, and it's about a woman who found some discard mail-in ballots on the ground:
The ballots were addressed to residents of an apartment complex less than a mile from where Rushiddin found them, according to the station.
Mars Quinonez, who lives in the building, said the complex "constantly gets broken into" and that mail theft was common.
So, basically "discarded ballots" stories are being spread as smoking guns for fraud, but what those really are, are a result of them mailing out millions of mail-in ballots and some of the ballots being thrown away or discarded on the ground or in bins, dumpsters or the like. These stories also date from months ago.
There are also individual incidents such as people vandalizing ballot collection boxes etc, but basically those are members of the public burning people's ballots regardless of who they voted for. Some guy put a home-made incendiary into a mail ballot collection box, tried to burn the ballots.
However which party's supporters do you think would think indiscriminately destroying mail-in ballots would be a good idea?
Also there are stories like this:
Group claims 400,000 ballots sent to residents who moved out of state or died in California
https://archive.vn/IrbaU
All this is really saying is that these people never updated their registrations, so ballots were sent out. They're saying that some dishonest person could vote on behalf of the dead/moved person from receiving these ballots, however that's extremely unlikely. First, you have to forge their signature, which you wouldn't know if you got mail for some random person who moved away, and second, you get 10 years in prison if you do this and get caught. So, no there's no evidence of anything here, just that about 1% of the population of California doesn't have sufficiently updated voter information.
This is another "smoking gun"
https://archive.vn/S2WSSa"Pa. rejected 372,000 ballot applications"
Wow, a smoking gun for sure. What the actual story is, is that anyone who voted in the primaries was already registered to get a mail ballot, so a lot of people didn't realize this and applied for
another mail ballot but got rejection notices
because they were already scheduled to get one, and people got confused by the letter, and called a hotline, jamming it up, with the operators having to explain to them that yes, they were already getting mail ballots. So some MAGA trolls spreading this headline around implying that 372000 people were denied mail ballots. In fact, they were denied getting
more than one mail ballot each, which is in line with electoral integrity, not fraud.
