GOP COMMISSIONERS WILL NOT USE DROP BOXES FOR MAIL-IN BALLOTS

Westmoreland County’s GOP Commissioners say they will not consider using drop boxes for mail-in ballots at the courthouse or at remote locations in the county for this year’s elections. The Trib reports that Commissioner Sean Kertes said that they used drop boxes for two years, and felt they were under utilized. Kertes and Commissioner Doug Chew said the issue was dead for the year, despite nearly 12 people showing up at an election board meeting to lobby for drop boxes.
