The US Postal Service effort to develop a sweeping new system for verifying mail ballots has invited a host of IT concerns among agency officials, with some describing the process internally as a “sh*t show,” according to a new whistleblower report released Tuesday by a Democratic senator. The unnamed whistleblower is alleging that some of the procedures USPS is planning – under mandates put forward by President Donald Trump – have been hidden from the public.

A U.S. Postal Service whistleblower is alleging the agency defied court orders while rushing to build a new ballot system that could reject thousands of mail ballots . The big picture: The whistleblower says the Postal Service built the system in weeks, not the nine months to a year normally needed for a project of this complexity. - The system stems from an executive order signed by President Trump that mandated the federal government to generate lists of confirmed U.S. citizens eligible to vote, and for the postmaster general to propose a rule that USPS will not transmit ballots from any people not on their state list. - The rule appeared in the Federal Register late last month.

The unidentified whistleblower claims that, due to the new procedures, a single scanning error in a batch of tens of thousands of ballot envelopes could prevent any from reaching voters.
An anonymous federal official warns that a rushed USPS portal tied to Trump’s mail-voting order could reject large batches of ballots before the midterms.
A report detailed “grave concerns” that a new system being rushed into use by the U.S. Postal Service could imperil millions of mail ballots ahead of the midterm elections.
Through a series of executive orders, the President has sought to stop what he claims to be widespread voter fraud - a claim unsupported by facts. A federal judge found that the White House’s rule that would make the USPS act as electoral oversight and force it not to deliver mail-in ballots in states that do not share their voter data was “likely unconstitutional.” The President – who himself votes by mail – has called the process, “mailed-in cheating.” “If vote-by-mail is inherently corrupt and inherently cheating,” says California Attorney General Rob Bonta, “then he is inherently corrupt and inherently a cheater because he votes by mail time and time again.”
