Maine Election Security and Integrity Called Into Question AGAIN!
House Republican Leaders Respond to Ballot Discovery in Amazon Package
AUGUSTA, ME – House Republican Leader Billy Bob Faulkingham and Assistant House Republican Leader Katrina Smith issued the following statements after a Newburgh woman discovered 250 official Maine election ballots inside an Amazon shipment just weeks before voters decide Question One, the proposed Voter ID law:
“The discovery of hundreds of authentic state ballots in a private Amazon delivery is beyond alarming,” said House Republican Leader Billy Bob Faulkingham. “At a time when Maine people are being asked to weigh in on whether to adopt the same commonsense Voter ID standards used in 36 other states, this shocking breach exposes how vulnerable our elections really are. When ballots appear in household shipments of rice and toys, trust is shattered. Mainers deserve answers, accountability, and immediate action.”
“Secretary of State Bellows has already acknowledged that there are non-citizens on Maine’s voter list and refused to cooperate with federal investigators,” said Assistant House Republican Leader Katrina Smith. “The integrity of our ballot is the foundation of our democracy. We call on Secretary of State Shenna Bellows to explain how this happened and to cooperate fully with federal investigators. Anything less is unacceptable.”
