Federal Data: 16.4M Mail-In Ballots Went Missing in 2016, 2018 Elections
Breitbart ^ | 4/10/2020 | John Binder

About 16.4 million mail-in ballots went missing in the 2016 and 2018 elections, data provided to Breitbart News reveals.

The data from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission and the Election Administration and Voting Surveys for 2016 and 2018, provided by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), shows that between the 2016 and 2018 elections, roughly 16.4 million ballots mailed to registered voters went missing.

In the 2018 election, about 42.4 million ballots were mailed to registered voters. Of those mailed, more than one million were undeliverable, more than 430,000 were rejected, and nearly 10.5 million went missing.

The 2016 election showed similar discrepancies. That year, about 41.6 million ballots were mailed to registered voters. Of those mailed, more than 568,000 were undeliverable, nearly 320,000 were rejected, and close to six million went missing.

“Putting the election in the hands of the United States Postal Service would be a catastrophe. In 2018 and 2016, there were 16 million missing and misdirected ballots,” PILF President J. Christian Adams said in a statement. He went on:

These represent 16 million opportunities for someone to cheat. Absentee ballot fraud is the most common; the most expensive to investigate; and can never be reversed after an election. The status quo was already bad for mail balloting. The proposed emergency fix is worse.

Los Angeles County, California, for instance, had nearly 1.4 million mail-in ballots go missing in the 2018 election, while Maricopa County, Arizona saw 408,000 mail-in ballots go missing.

Hey never underestimate a NYC guy’s ability to turn the tables.

We can be very cunning and sinister when we need to be. :)

Too bad so many are left wing jerks.

But Trump isn’t one of them.

And he WILL win this battle.

I’m Certain of it.

“Los Angeles County, California, for instance, had nearly 1.4 million mail-in ballots go missing in the 2018 election”
****

there are 90% Republicans in L.A. County? I do suspect 40% of the 1.4 voted for Trump, at minimum. But there is something called electoral college..

“Nothing has been done concerning election reform”

Trump has appointed federal judges in large numbers. That is not “nothing”.

I'm confused. How do they define a ballot as "going missing"? Does that mean it was mailed out and never cast? In which case, the most likely reason is someone requested an absentee, then never filled it out / turned it in.

If it was part of voter fraud, then it was returned, but filled out without the input of the citizen to whom it belonged. In which case it was returned, and therefore did not "go missing".

The very fact they’re still missing means they weren’t for Hellary.

Yes and they probably brag to their friends about how many mail in votes and ballots they discarded from primarily Republican and conservative parts of the state.

We are going to likely lose this november. All because we as a whole, did NOTHING to stop voter fraud. NOTHING. If we lose this election, we will lose everything.
Yes, vote/voter fraud needs to come to a screeching halt.

ACORN-in every state- Soros machines, vote harvesting etc are rampant and MUST be curtailed!

Plus, very important, non citizen voting is a giant problem, Hillary probably got 5 million votes just from illegal aliens voting.

How the F*** do 16 million pieces of mailings go “Missing” unless it’s all manipulated? This is all very scary! #TRUMP2020

I have never understood why Trump praises Rona McDaniel. She was in charge of the republican party when we lost the House of Representatives. Neither her manner of speaking or her words inspire confidence. Isn’t there anyone out there who would be better than she is?

I would suspect all of us who were very surprised by losing midterm election this may have had something to do with it. A blinding flash of the obvious.

said, "I wonder how many mail-in ballots APPEARED out of thin air"

That is what these where most likely. Similar to the "dimpled" chads. Dimpled chads being proof of voter fraud. As you can't punch a single card and get a dimple. It has to be done with a stack of cards.
