Questions are mounting over whether some Benton County voters’ primary election ballots were affected after postal workers alleged some Corvallis mail routes were told to prioritize package deliveries over collecting outgoing mail on Election Day.The information was first reported by the Corvallis Gazette-Times, which spoke with two postal workers who said letter carriers were directed by management on May 19 — the day of Oregon’s primary election — to focus on package deliveries. Benton County officials say they were unaware of the allegations until they read the newspaper’s report.

GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- For the second time in 2026, the city of Green Bay has accidently sent duplicate ballots to some voters across the city. The city of Green Bay announced early Sunday evening that residents across the city have started to receive their mail-in ballots for the August primary election. However, some of the residents who received one of the 5,084 total ballots also received an additional ballot. The city says its staff became aware of the issue on Saturday that some voters in wards 11a, 12a, 37a, 44-47 and part of ward 43 received a duplicate ballot....

The explosive expansion of mail-in voting — turbocharged during COVID and conveniently never rolled back in many blue states — punched a massive hole in American election security. Conservatives raised the alarm for years. They were dismissed as paranoid. The media shrugged. Meanwhile, ballots kept flying through the postal system with zero meaningful verification that the person on the envelope was, you know, an actual eligible voter. But something just shifted. The federal government has stumbled onto a devastatingly simple enforcement mechanism, and the states with the dirtiest voter rolls are already lawyering up. Funny how that works. From The...

Summary of the YouTube video: "Liberal Tech Bros STUNNED After BOMBSHELL Data Map Exposes How Democrats RIGGED LA Mayor Election!" by Black Conservative Perspective. The video analyzes a segment from the All-In Podcast (tech/finance hosts) reacting to voting data from the Los Angeles mayoral election. The creator frames it as evidence of systemic Democratic election rigging in California, especially via mail-in ballots and homeless populations. Key Points from the Video: Voting Data Breakdown: In-person Election Day votes favored Spencer Pratt (35%), Karen Bass (29%), Nithya Raman (26%). Pre-Election Day mail-ins: Bass led strongly. Post-Election Day/late mail-ins showed big shifts, with...

State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots. That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting. If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections — and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud. The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would...

While election night vote counts on Tuesday night showed City Councilwoman Nithya Raman far behind in the race for Los Angeles Mayor, as we go into the 4th day of counting her numbers are picking up and betting odds markets predict she will overtake Spencer Pratt for second place and qualify for the November runoff. Raman attributed her surge to her strong advocacy for bike lanes, saying "the people who mocked me will see that I have the winning formula for bringing the City back from the baleful performance of Mayor Bass and the whimsical delusions of low crime and...

The fake news is now brazenly defending the (alleged) election fraud happening in California. To give you a quick rundown of what’s been going on in the LA Mayor race, Spencer Pratt was solidly in second-place to Karen Bass on Election Night, with Nithya Raman trailing behind in third. But, as Election Day turned into days, flood after flood of mail-in ballots have come in. And, they have not been favorable to Spencer Pratt. Now, at this point, he’s only barely beating out Nithya Raman and may not advance at all. We covered the latest in the race here: Spencer...

A federal judge on Thursday cleared the way for President Donald Trump to implement his executive order tightening mail-in voting, slapping down Democrats’ arguments for now that federal efforts to police voter rolls with citizenship checks was illegal.U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointed jurist, ruled that Democrats failed to show they have standing at present to challenge the order or have suffered any harm that would warrant a preliminary injunction."Given that the Executive Order does not command Plaintiffs to do anything, and that no agency has yet acted pursuant to the Order in a way that could harm...

(The Epoch Times)—A federal judge on May 28 allowed President Donald Trump’s administration to implement an executive order imposing restrictions on mail-in voting. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, based in Washington, rejected a request from Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), for an injunction against the order. Absent an injunction, the federal government would compile lists of U.S. citizens and would coerce states into only allowing people on the lists to register to vote and vote in elections, even though the sources for the list are known to be deficient, plaintiffs argued in court filings. Nichols disagreed, writing...

(The Center Square) - The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a resolution outlining the locations of drop boxes for the upcoming early voting period without consulting Recorder Justin Heap. The board approved the resolution while it continues to deal with an ongoing lawsuit with Heap about who runs specific election functions. In April, a judge ruled in favor of Heap, saying the board members need to hand over control of specific election functions to his office. The board sought a stay of the motion, but the Arizona Superior Court denied it. The board announced it will appeal the...

No more weeks of extended counting that destroys trust. Elections must end on Election Day, ballots in by close of polls, counted that night. Period.

President Donald Trump is weighing on an error in some mail-in ballots in the state of Maryland. The State Board of Elections confirmed the error that would lead some voters to receive the wrong party for the Gubernatorial Primary Election. As a precaution, the state is resending all ballots regardless of whether someone received the correct one initially. Now, Trump is addressing the error. Trump posted the following message on Truth Social: In Maryland, they sent out 500,000 Illegal Mail In Ballots, and they got caught! So now, they’re going to send out 500,000 more Mail In Ballots, but nobody...

Could the state of California actually be turning red? Early voters in the Golden State have already returned more than 900,000 ballots ahead of the June 2 Primary, showing a massive surge in Republican votes compared to four years ago for the governor’s race. A post on Saturday from the research firm Political Data (PDI) showed that out of 905,889 ballots that have been returned, 37% were from Republicans, with Republican returns up 11% compared to the same stage of the 2022 midterms.

ATLANTA (AP) — The federal government can keep the 2020 election ballots from Georgia’s Fulton County that were seized by the FBI from a warehouse near Atlanta, a judge ruled Wednesday. U.S. District Judge J.P. Boulee’s decision came after lawyers for the county had argued that the ballots and other election materials, as well as any electronic copies the Justice Department has made, should be returned because the seizure was improper and unconstitutional. The Jan. 28 seizure by the FBI targeted the elections hub in Georgia’s most populous county, which is heavily Democratic and includes most of the city of...

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California’s June 2 primary election is approaching, with ballots set to begin arriving for registered voters Monday. In the weeks leading up to Election Day, voters will receive four key pieces of mail: a state voter information guide, a county voter information guide, a sample ballot and an official ballot. “Democracy is a messy business, and it can take some work,” political analyst Steve Swatt said. “And it’s incumbent on us as voters to do our homework.” At the top of the ticket is the race to succeed Gov. Gavin Newsom, a contest that analysts say remains...

A box containing hundreds of unopened Washington state ballots was reportedly discovered on the ground next to a dumpster behind a strip mall in Renton, raising serious questions about ballot handling and election security. Washington State Republican Party Chairman Jim Walsh said a concerned citizen brought the ballots to the GOP’s Bellevue headquarters after finding them discarded. “Earlier today, a concerned citizen contacted me and came and dropped off at the Bellevue headquarters a large box of ballots, Washington State ballots, specifically King County elections ballots, that were mailed to people and never received,” Walsh said in a video posted...

Michigan is among states doubling down on rejecting Trump administration investigations and oversight into elections, claiming protection of the right to vote, potentially setting up a battle that could escalate to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Justice Department is demanding roughly 865,000 ballots and hundreds of thousands of related election records from the Detroit area’s 2024 election, threatening to seek a court order if the materials are not turned over within 14 days. In an April 14 letter to Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon asked for "all ballots (including absentee and provisional), ballot receipts,...
