Nonprofit mails 587,638 erroneous absentee ballot applications to Virginia voters
NBC News 12 ^ | 08.07.20 | By Graham Moomaw

Posted on 08/09/2020 8:30:10 AM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

A misunderstanding of Virginia’s independent cities and counties apparently led a nonprofit voter registration group to mail 587,638 absentee ballot applications to Virginia voters that asked them to send the ballot back to the wrong election office.

The Center for Voter Information said the mishap was an honest mistake mainly affecting voters in a handful of localities that share a name: including Fairfax City and Fairfax County, Richmond City and Richmond County, Roanoke City and Roanoke County, and Franklin City and Franklin County....

The mass mailing, which involved more than 2.2 million pre-filled absentee ballot applications statewide, sowed confusion for many voters and local election officials, who quickly sought to inform voters it was not coming from an official government source....

The Center for Voter Information bills itself as nonpartisan, but a job posting lists the organization as a “progressive” group that focuses on what it calls the rising American electorate, or “unmarried women, people of color and young people.”

“Honest mistake, my Aunt Petunia”

Shouldn’t that be “my Aunt’s patootie”?

A misunderstanding of Virginia’s independent cities and counties”

NBC is lying of course. They know It was not a misunderstanding. The cheating is going to be so deep and wide Trump will need a 15 point
lead to overcome it.

Misunderstanding or not, it shows that mail-in ballots are unreliable.

In what way were these absentee ballot requests “pre-filled”? How does that work?

So they will demand that the poor suffering VA taxpayers must pay for their “honest mistake?”

They don’t do this by accident. Not shocked at all. Just sick of it all.

NBC? That's weird. Bet the guy who reported the above is already looking for a new job. NBC is biased, corrupt and proud of it.

The name, address, locality and date of election are prefilled.
The rest would have to be completed and signed.
Envelope addressed to county registrar with postage paid included.

How shocking, a Democrat non-profit causing election mayhem. This wasn't a mistake, it was a trial run. How is a non-profit even involved in mailing out ballot applications? This should only be handled by government orgs (there shouldn't be mail-in voting, anyway). The GOP better have reams of lawyers ready to go for this election.
