https://www.yahoo.com/news/took-ballot-envelope-already-filled-071116113.htmlAh, Sedgwick County, where your election ballot might come pre-marked for the Republican candidates.
That actually happened Tuesday to Scott Colby, a resident of east Wichita.
When he went to his polling place, at Wichita Brewing Company, he asked to vote on a paper ballot instead of a machine, as has been his habit for many years.
They handed him a ballot in a privacy envelope. When he sat down at the table to vote, he got a big surprise.
When I took the ballot out of the envelope, it was already filled out all the Republicans, he said.

(154 posts)I worked in a vote center in CA. Tuesday, 5 of us processed 650 voters and probably accepted another 700 vote by mail envelopes. To keep the lines moving we rotated jobs to relieve the bottleneck at any given time. It got hectic, and although we were required to take breaks including an hour break for lunch, I started at 6am and finally took a lunch break at 3pm, realizing I was developing brain fog. If the center in Kansas was busy, possible a completed ballot didn't make its way to the ballot box and got into the unfilled ballot pile, or it was supposed to be a spoiled ballot and a worker was distracted by a voter's question. I assume the person to whom this happened simply asked for a new ballot. Not great, but easily fixable

If we hear of a bunch of this happening, that'll be different.
