(2,370 posts)Appleton officials had given the absentee ballots to a third-party mail vendor on April 6, the day before the election, according to the report. The mail vendor provided them to the post office about 6 p.m. on election day.
Who are the "Appleton officials" and how is it they didn't mail them until the day before the election?

-- the insane conspiracy generating entity,The John Birch Society is located in Appleton, WI
-- is also the hometown of the worst US Senator ever... Joe McCarthy, who like, Trump, had Roy Cohn as a lawyer and died an alcoholic self-inflicted mess.

She obviously has a new gig somewhere. The Green Bay--Fox Cities--Oshkosh--Fondy region is usually dead red. These actions guarantee it stays that way.
Maybe it was Americans For Plutocracy. The Kochs have tried everything against democracy.
