Two women, including a United States Postal Service (USPS) worker, were arrested in Colorado’s Mesa County for allegedly stealing mail-in ballots and forging votes in an attempt to “test” the voting signature verification system, according to officials and an affidavit.
Investigators from the Colorado’s 21st Judicial District Attorney’s Office made the arrests on Nov. 6, according to an announcement from District Attorney Daniel Rubinstein, who stated that the investigation began after reports of unreceived ballots being fraudulently submitted were made by election staff on Oct. 21.
