The same day postal officials publicly denied responsibility for 58,000 missing absentee ballots, an internal e-mail sent by the South Florida District Manager to his employees expressed concern that his staff was not handling ballots within the region properly.
In the memorandum sent on Oct. 26, Butch Parker also told his employees that staff seemed unaware of the procedures that should be taken when handling ballots.
'As of today, we have supervisors and employees that state they have never been made aware of the procedures to be used,' Parker wrote to his employees. 'We continue to find absentee ballots mixed in with other classes of mail.'
The e-mail stated that absentee ballots with improper postage sat idle in postal facilities, instead of being returned to their sender."
