The U.S. Department of Justice unsealed an indictment on Tuesday accusing a former postal worker of discarding roughly 300 mail-in ballots in the state of Utah. Federal court records reveal that a grand jury returned the charges against Damon Matai Seei, 34, of Payson, Utah, last Wednesday.
Seei faces a single count of unlawful secretion, destruction, and delay of mail. The charges stem from allegations that he intentionally disposed of ballots intended for voters in Utah.

Has anyone checked if these were valid ballots or just junk mail? The indictment doesn’t specify the ballot types clearly.
300 ballots? That is a shocking number. I wonder if this was an isolated incident or part of a larger pattern of negligence?
This is absolutely disgusting. Voting is a fundamental right, and throwing away ballots is a direct attack on democracy itself.
