A former U.S. Postal Service worker in Louisville, Kentucky, was charged with mail obstruction who had dumped almost 100 absentee ballots. DeShawn Bojgere, a former U.S. Postal Service worker, allegedly dumped mail from one delivery route on one day between Oct. 5 and Oct. 15 in Louisville. The mail reportedly included 111 ballots, two election campaign flyers, and nearly 400 pieces of non-election mail.

The discarded ballots were all being sent from the Jefferson County Clerk’s office to voters and had not yet been filled out. "Bojgere has confessed to dumping the mail, and if convicted will face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine," reported Forbes.

Special Agent Scott Balfour of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service told Forbes that “incidents of this nature are exceedingly rare.”
