The mail dumping out in California turned out to be contractors, not unionized employees.
Anyone know offhand if the postal inspectors are union members?
But who is supervising them?
If I contract on a federal job I have to follow all the federal rules that federal employees.
So if a contractor throws out my ballot, then too bad, so sad?
A caller on a talk show said contractors do a lot of sorting and other things and are not definitely supervised well. They vary in quality and honesty depending on the area.
Another asked who is watching the postage meter contractors' people who are paid to print a postmark on thousands of pieces of mail? They can simply put a counterfeit early date before Nov. 3rd but really are handling ballots filled out days after the election. That is a problem I haven't seen discussed. Someone should make sure ballots without a top postmark are not allowed to be sorted past that point.
