Whistleblower: Catastrophe Coming For Mail-In Voting

 

The corrupt and criminal Malignant Fascist sees the handwriting on the wall for the upcoming mid-terms, so he's been doing his worst to rig them, from gerrymandering voting districts to attempting to impose voter ID restrictions.  Now, his move to undermine mail-in voting has brought forth a whistleblower at the U.S. Postal Service, which is central actor in the MF's rigging scheme.  From ABC News:

"An anonymous government employee whistleblower has come forward to Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal, warning that a 'rushed, chaotic and fundamentally flawed' effort by the U.S. Postal Service to implement President Donald Trump's mail-in ballot executive order risks a 'catastrophic failure' of the election system that could 'derail the midterm elections.'

The whistleblower's concerns were made public in a report released by Blumenthal, who said in a release Tuesday morning that the allegations show that the system USPS is creating to track mail-in balloting is 'set up to fail -- and risk the right to vote for millions of Americans who cast their ballots by mail.'

The whistleblower is described in the report as someone with direct knowledge of potentially "catastrophic problems" in the development of the USPS' new electronic federal mail ballot portal. [snip]

The whistleblower described a 'secretive, rushed, chaotic and fundamentally flawed process' creating and implementing an 'untested' federal ballot mail portal that USPS will use to screen ballots.

The rushed effort to create the portal could cause 'significant operating' problems and the failure to verify ballots this November, the whistleblower said. It could also mean, the report alleges, that 'potentially millions of American voters may not receive their mail-in ballot this election cycle in a timely manner or at all.'

The report details a 'slapdash' production process for the new IT software, which the whistleblower alleges hasn't been sufficiently tested or debugged. At the time of report, the whistleblower said there was insufficient time to test the system before a Sept. 1 deadline to deliver it." (our emphasis)

Of course, USPS efficiency was never the concern of the MF, who is only seeking to sow chaos in the mid-terms (which are looking more and more like a Dem wave) and to discourage voters from voting at all.  The U.S. District Court  for Massachusetts now has the whistleblower's report and analysis to use in determining whether a permanent injunction on the MF's scheme is required.  That determination should come swiftly; eventually, on to the Republican SCOTUS.
