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

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.”

Ballot applications should be handled just as securely as ballots themselves. Otherwise this is a major recipe for fraud.

I don’t feel an election is truly possible as early as November.

Our president should postpone it until fairness can be guaranteed.

I know it’s a pipe dream, but I will not be able to believe the results of the one we are heading into, whichever way it goes.

I got one of them in Blacksburg. Not sure what list they were using but my info was correct. They had prefilled out the request form too. Someone spent a good bit of money to do this.

Did you have to provide any ID evidence or even have to sign the form?

The principals being Democrat operatives, this is blatant, in-your-face election fraud of the type that deserves maximum sentencing.

I didn’t really look at it, this 3rd party sent it to me out of the blue. I would assume all you would have to do is sign it and send it in. It’s a pre-filled absentee ballot application, I have only voted that way a couple of times so I am not sure what process they are using this year.

In Virginia, absentee ballots are counted last and sometimes not counted at all.

Filled in with the signatures all looking the same. Same method Chicago used for decades to get their candidates on the ballot.

Are Virginia mail in ballots not pre-addressed? AZ there’s a return envelope, addressed and postage paid. You gotta go out of your way to mail it to the wrong place. Maybe these states need to do a better job on the basics, that’s the best way to keep the weird from happening.
