E-MAIL TO THE EDITOR: Republican Canvassers Offered To Deliver Ballot, University Place Resident Says

It follows a recent spate of complaints of door-to-door canvassers offering to deliver ballots.

Late yesterday afternoon (11/2/12) three people rang our doorbell in UP and offered to take care of "delivering" our ballots to the correct voting location. They had no visible ID, no literature and did not state what organizatiion they represented. They just wanted the ballots. I said we had mailed them a week ago. When pressed they said they were sent by the Pierce County Republican Party to "assist" voters.

This is happening all over the county, according to KING 5 News last night and an article on the KING 5 website.

Willard must be getting desperate.
