At least a dozen mailed ballots were intercepted and cast on the Western Slope before voters received them, according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office. Three of those ballots were cast and counted in Mesa County before the county clerk was able to pull them from the final tally.

Colorado’s Department of State learned about the intercepted ballots on Tuesday.

“The ballots were filled out, the return envelopes were signed, they were then returned to a USPS blue box, so that’s a postal box, not a ballot drop box,” said Secretary of State Jena Griswold in a news conference on Thursday afternoon. “The issue was discovered during the signature verification process.”

    You are correct

    But also there was that recent supreme Court ruling that basically makes the US president a king

    So anything Biden ( or any elected president ) does as president is completely and totally sanctioned by the US supreme Court

    The Overton window in the US has shifted so far to the right we literally had the supreme Court say the president cannot commit a crime…

    It won’t be done not because it’s fascist. But because the Democratic party doesn’t want to play with the modern political ruleset
