Article in this morning's Washington Post said that a district in heavily Democratic Fairfax County VA seems to have misplaced about 4,000 absentee ballots. This is a big deal, because the race for Attorney General is so close. Only 770 votes difference.
They did a statistical analysis of ballot requests. In virtually all Virginia districts, the absentee ballot return rate is something like 95%, and in the two other Fairfax districts it is about 95%, but in this particular district, it's only 50%. Not cool, election officials.
They are investigating.
