The incompetence of public employee unions strikes again. The American Postal Workers Union has been forced to extend its election because too many mail-in ballots have yet to get to their final destination. That’s right, the postal workers election is on hold because the post office lost the ballots in the mail.
The union’s election committee was supposed to be counting those ballots this week in downtown Washington, D.C., following a tradition mail-in election. But the union announced that only about 39,000 ballots were turned in — and that “a large number of union members had not received their ballots.”
Government workers doing their normal substandard work, eh?
And these are the same people that want to takeover our healthcare?

Looks like the USPO wants an increase in postage so the unions are pulling this crap by stating the “ballots” are lost . If they are lost then this “suckie” congress – these gutless wonders should call for an investigation- of course they most likely would need to ask Soros..This really smells of rotten Unions
You stated: “The incompetence of public employee unions strikes again.” & I had to wonder if it is incompetence or fraud.
Reminds me of the story, “The Roads Must Roll” by Robert A. Heinlein. A story about the psychological and sociological problems of too much power and not enough accountability in the wrong hands.
