    Leading up to the Sept. 12 primary election, 420 people cast 1,255 absentee ballots at four drop boxes, the Deseret News reported. Under Connecticut law, absentee votes must be delivered either by relatives and caregivers or sent by mail, but surveillance footage shows a woman on Ganim’s campaign staff, allegedly Wanda Geter-Pataky, stuffing a ballot box with white envelopes.

    As long as the votes are cast by registered voters, this just sounds like a stupid law that should be done away with, not a fraud issue.

      It’s definitely fraud if you have a person filling out ballots in other people’s names without them knowing about it. How is that not fraud?

        You’re jumping to conclusions. How many of those people were dropping off their and their spouses (or adult children, or whathaveyou) ballots? Is it really necessary for all of them to not only go to the drop box, but also get out of the car and place it into the slot themselves? Is that what’s keeping us from freedom?

        So your conspiracy is that Biden won Connecticut by 800 votes?
