Can the Post Office Be Trusted With Mail-In Ballots?

Original Article

Posted By: Judy W., 9/15/2021 9:35:35 AM

As I write this on Sunday afternoon, a Thursday Washington Post article headlined, “Postal Service workers not included in President Biden’s mandatory vaccination order, source says,” remains on the Post website uncorrected. According to Post reporter Jacob Bogage, “postal workers would be strongly encouraged to comply with the mandate,” but they would not be forced to get vaccinated. To his humble credit, Bogage noted the paradox of Biden exempting “a massive chunk of the federal workforce … that interacts daily with an equally large swath of the public.” (Snip)The case of former Erie, Pennsylvania postal worker Richard Hopkins shows the folly of entrusting 66 million ballots to an entity openly hostile

Comments:

Republican state legislators need to end all mail-in balloting. For Americans living abroad, some secure way of transmitting their votes needs to be set up.

Since the postal workers union is aligned with the Democrat party which is also exactly why public unions need to be abolished, trusting them to do the right thing would be like trusting a kleptomaniac to walk though your home by themselves and not touch anything.

It has been obvious since last summer that this was going to be the easiest part of The Steal. Woke lifelong Democrat Socialist leftist postal worker knows everybody on his route. And their political persuasion. The old couple with the Trump sign in their yard-Postal Lefty sees mail-in ballot heading their way- oops, round file. Or maybe fills it out for Biden and turns it in? Then, on actual Election Day the old couple show up to vote for Trump. They are turned away and told they already voted. On the outside chance the Trump couple receives their mail-in ballot and they fill it in and vote for Trump-oops, Postal Lefty has another chance to serve Marx and Biden and their ballots go in the round file. We made it way too easy for them to cheat. There is no provenance or legitimacy to any of those mail in ballots. This must be stopped.

I just returned from vacation. The PO was holding my mail...and now they can't find it. I have the items scanned and sent to me each morning, and so I know there are some important items besides the usual shopper papers and gutter cover ads. So, would I trust ballots to USPS? No, even before this fiasco.

It happened again. This time in California. Ballots being stolen. One guy with 300 ballots in his car, and now yesterday, Republican voters showing up to vote and being told they've already voted when in fact they hadn't. Real in person voting with proof of ID and voting takes place on one day. Not over weeks with mail in crap. You either go to a polling place with an ID and vote, or you don't vote.

No. It’s not supposed to be a security system. I don’t mail cash marked as “cash” or otherwise. The ballot process must be transparent from issuance of the ballot form to its casting. When that piece of paper disappears from view the system is no longer trustworthy.

Mail in ballots are the setup for massive vote fraud. It is the INTENT of mail in ballots to enable massive vote fraud. That is the ONLY REASON that the government thugs insist on mail in ballots, to guarantee fraud. USPS is Fraud Central in the massive Demonrat election fraud, on top of the Dominion Voting Fraud Machines which are rigged to change votes internally.

SURE! That California guy found asleep in his car at the 7-Eleven had around 300 mail-in ballots in his car which had not been delivered. Where did he get them? What about the guy in Pennsylvania who found several bundles of mail-in ballots in a ditch that never made it to where they were supposed to go? What about Zuckboxes that collected ballots put in by the SAME PEOPLE who were CAUGHT ON VIDEO doing multiple deposits and drops of created or harvested mail-in ballots? s/off

#17 - We also received an "invitation" to the Trump Inauguration after we wrote a letter of support following the election. It is not a "real" invitation. It is a memento thank-you gift. We have ours framed and hanging in the dining room. The Post Office is rank and in league with the election steals, but not at fault for your late "invitation" to the inauguration.

I have been voting by mail, but I will not be doing so in the future. Your mailman knows what your political leanings are because he sees the mail solicitations you receive. These reports of mail workers ditching ballots has jarred me into a realization that it absolutely is not advisable to vote by mail.

Newt Gingrich, the one-time history professor whose insights in 1994 about the American electorate helped Republicans gain control of the House for the first time in 40 years, thinks he’s got a plan that will return Congress to Republican control in 2022. His research has revealed that there are multiple unifying issues that concern all Americans and that Republicans are the ones with the more appealing platforms regarding those arguments. (Snip) According to Gingrich, there are 16 issues that bind Americans together. Indeed, 85% of voters are in accord as to these issues, with only a left fringe opposing the majority viewpoint. The most obvious issue is defunding the police,

When I think about the West’s project to liberate Afghan women, my mind conjures a line from T.S. Eliot: “The last temptation is the greatest treason/to do the right deed for the wrong reason.” In Afghanistan, we engaged in a twenty-year, deliciously self-righteous, tragically ill-designed mission best expressed by flipping that sentence. We did the wrong thing, perhaps for the right reason. We wanted to develop that country and rescue Afghan women. Their lives were hellish, girls banned from school, women forbidden to leave their homes except in the company of a male guardian, vigilantes beating them with sticks if their burqa was too short.

One of the biggest stories in the media concerns hospitals filled to overflowing with COVID patients. However, as an article in The Atlantic (of all places!) informs us, these numbers are misleading. Almost half of the people in the hospital with COVID are either mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic. In other words, to anyone running around screaming, “We’re all gonna die!” the answer is “No, we’re not.” The biggest story is that of a 73-year-old Alabama man who purportedly died from a treatable heart attack after dozens of hospitals across a three-state region turned him away owing to the fact that their ICUs were overflowing with COVID patients.

On Tuesday, a Clinton-appointed federal judge granted an emergency injunction preventing the state of New York from enforcing a Covid-19 vaccine mandate for its healthcare workers. Former Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the healthcare worker vaccine mandate on August 16 prompting more than a dozen healthcare professionals to request a court enjoinder. The mandate requires hospitals staff and employees of long-term care facilities to be vaccinated in order to remain employed. The suit argues that medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and medical technicians face losing their careers and livelihoods if they refuse to receive a vaccine that contradicts their religious beliefs.

Ihave a dream. It is prompted by this story, out of Portland State, of a professor who is leaving the academy after enduring one vicious and disgusting attack after another: swastikas (and feces) on his office door, lectures disrupted, slanderous attacks on his family life, institutional denial of the most basic rights of the accused—indeed, hatred from the very people who should be rewarding him for his courage. He is no conservative. He seems to have no notion of truth outside of the realm of strict rationalism. He and I would disagree about many things. But he has a mind, and he uses it, and therefore he is dangerous.
On 9/11 Anniversary, Biden Repeats False

In his pre-taped remarks (how many takes were needed to get a coherent version?) on the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 jihad attacks that killed 2,977 people, Old Joe Biden lamented the fact, as Matt Margolis noted yesterday, that since that terrible day, “we also witnessed the dark forces of human nature. Fear and anger. Resentment and violence against Muslim-Americans — true and faithful followers of a peaceful religion.” (Snip) But it was unfortunate that Biden once again repeated this hoary and easily disproven chestnut about Islam being a “peaceful religion”; at this point this idea is nothing more than a dogma of the Leftist faith, not to be questioned,

I have no doubt that Joe Biden set September 11, the 20th anniversary of the worst attack on American soil, for his botched bug out from Afghanistan thinking it would be a triumphant conclusion to twenty years of war in Afghanistan. Doesn’t look like that plan was worth following. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people who should have been evacuated first are now hostage to murderous barbarians there.

It began in the days after 9/11 itself, when George W.

Capitol Police ordered fencing put back up around the grounds ahead of Saturday’s rally in order to provide additional security, though “intelligence suggests there will not be widespread or significant violence,” CBS News reported.

Following the lead of Pfizer/BioNTech, which branded its ‘fully authorized’ (and oddly, unavailable) vaccine “Comirnaty,” the second and third largest manufacturers for Europe and Canada, Moderna and AstraZeneca, are also relabeling their Covid shots. “The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is Comirnaty, the Moderna vaccine will be named SpikeVax, and the AstraZeneca vaccine will be named Vaxzevria,” Health Canada said in a tweet Thursday. “These are only name changes. There are no changes to the vaccines themselves,” Health Canada added in an attempt to quell confusion.
