An anonymous federal official has warned members of Congress that Donald Trump’s “secretive, rushed” and “chaotic” plans for the U.S. Postal Service to implement new rules for mail-in ballots could disenfranchise millions of voters this fall.
Tuesday’s whistleblower report outlines “potentially catastrophic problems” with the administration’s brand-new system, including a “zero-percent failure policy” that could reject tens of thousands of ballots at a time if any single mistakes are made, including misread barcodes or inadvertent errors from postal workers.
