Battle Over #Ballot Drop Boxes Rages On in #Wisconsin as Officials Put Them at Center of #Election Integrity Debate
—

Ballot drop boxes have morphed into vessels for emotion, suspicion and conspiracy theories. In Wisconsin, their mere presence has inspired community leaders to reject them or call on people to watch them 24/7. A mayor even hijacked one.

@[email protected] Washington is a vote by mail state. Everyone votes by mail. Although we can drop our ballots into a mailbox so the USPS delivers it, many of us prefer to go into town and put it into the dropbox near the library.

If I see any weird characters monitoring that dropbox when I drop off my ballot, I will be calling the police. That shit might be acceptable in Texas in Arizona, but it doesn’t fly here.
