A total of 450 were rejected ballots out of about 1.3 million mailed-in ballots received in those counties. That is a rejection rate of .0003%.
Such numbers are simply ludicrous and defy belief.
Mail-in ballots have been rejected at around a 1% rate in recent years, though 2020 is expected to be on the higher end due to the number of voters casting ballots by mail for the first time, mail delivery issues at the U.S. Postal Service, and court decisions disenfranchising voters whose ballots were cast by Election Day but do not arrive in time.
So with MORE mail in ballots there is less than 3/1,000th of 1% rejected ballots in a Democrat run cities versus a national average of around 1%?
