You’re reading your own interests into this incident. All we know is that the mail carrier got caught ditching some GOP campaign mailers. We don’t know a thing about his personal politics or even if he has any. Having some knowledge of posties my bet is that beer is his personal political preference, and is likely the root of him not performing his job.
FR is full of political junkies. Not everyone is motivated by politics or even pays the slightest attention to them. Mail carriers are deluged with mailers at election time and end up hating them all, not just the Democrat or Republican ones. Their customers end up hating mailers by the time the election rolls around. I know I get sick of them.
Again, the only threw out the Republican mailers, not the Dim’s stuff. He’s a union member, and this is WI and was just after Act 10.
